We all know of at least one person who is slightly eccentric, slightly dubious, and more than a little quirky. However, Miss Krishna could very well leave them all behind with her lack of boundaries, her inability to pick up on social cues or her (slightly questionable) love for fine things. But Miss Krishna was the author’s cross to bear and she bears it with as much good humour as possible, even through unannounced visits and unwanted gifts.
Every person has a side that they never reveal to anyone, even those closest to them. And as the author was about to find out, so did Miss Krishna.
Surprisingly funny and endearing in its strangeness, The Connoisseur is as well-written as it is tender. Read on.
