Beschreibung
"The short story 'Namaste Trump' starts in a deceptive domestic setting, where a servant from the hinterlands is patronized and exploited by an upwardly mobile urban family. But as the nation celebrates Trump's visit and copes with the pandemic, it ends up becoming a prophecy of endless haunting.
