Music for Joshua (English)

Author : Chatura Rao
Illustrator : Satwik Gade

Joshua loves music. But learning to play an instrument isn’t likely, he knows. One day he hears the notes of a guitar… and ends up following a music teacher from house to house, watching and listening. If only he could learn too! The endearing story takes us into the heart of a Goan family living among Mumbai’s small East Indian community. Against a hazy skyline of high-rises, amidst monsoon skies, the buoyant pictures zoom in on colourful old buildings, trellised balconies, sloping roofs and cobbled alleys to bring us the ambience of a typical ‘gaothan’.
