Returning to the city of his youth, Amit Chaudhuri encounters sights and shopkeepers both familiar and unknown. Those more mundane memories are punctuated by Amit’s recollections of his old friend, who is being treated for a long-standing substance abuse problem, and by the city’s collective trauma from a recent terrorist attack. Friend of My Youth is an autofiction kaleidoscope, examining how cities, friendships, and artists change over time. Recommended By Keith M., Powells.com
