There\'s No Love On Wall Street
There's No Love On Wall Street by Ira Trivedi Ira Trivedi's third book was certainly a picaresque novel about the desi love affair with Wall Street. Until we reach about halfway into the book, we realize "There's No Love on Wall Street" is not a comedy. The novel is theoretically an intense story and the book is at least quasi-autobiographical. Trivedi too had taken up a career in finance, an MBA from Columbia University and then an internship at J.P. Morgan, prior to becoming a writer and yoga teacher. The autobiographical angle is worth enough as one would expect the author's personal experience would have added some complexity to the story and characters, but the novel is pathetically shallow. If the heroine of There's No Love on Wall Street is representing the Wall Street banking interns, then the financial meltdown was of no surprise. To conclude, it's a Bollywood masala instilled with Wall Street daydreams. The book is a Penguin India publication and costs 199.
