Beschreibung
Annawadi is a slum at the edge of Mumbai Airport. Its residents are garbage recyclers, construction workers and economic migrants, all living in the hope that a better future lies ahead. Boo charts the lives of the residents as crime and a global recession shocks the city, and things get a whole lot worse... 'One's first reaction is disbelief followed by stunned silence' "Times"
