A pair of idle investment bankers gets caught up in an art hustle. A rising star gets backstabbed by her own mentor. An ambitious CEO pays a steep price for an unfortunate misstep. A London City banker finds himself writing scripts for Bollywood. Peasants at a Party is a collection of such fictional tales set in the UK, US and India where vicious politics, greed and lust intersect against a backdrop of the corporate world. Unmasking the shenanigans at play through her keen observation and imaginative storytelling, the author Sona Maniar brings her own experience of having lived and worked in six countries and takes us on an entertaining ride across the business landscape. With ups and downs and often a surprise twist at the end, the stories reveal the harshness beneath the apparent glamour and compel the reader to reflect, introspect and most importantly ask the question – Could this too happen in the workplace?

A couple of werewolves, Susan, and Alf, each wearing an "eat a human" T-shirt walked in Ghostville Mall. They stopped in front of the movie theater and looked at the list. The two looked at each other and walked away. Susan eyed a human skeleton through the arcade's windows. She elbowed Alf and he looked at her. When Susan had his attention she whispered, "Let's eat him when he comes out." Her eyes pointed out the human skeleton. Following Susan's eyes, Alf saw the human skeleton and started drooling. "He looks good enough to eat." Alf and Susan sat on the wooden bench opposite the entrance, so they could see the human skeleton through the window. They sat there grooming each other's heads like a pair of chimpanzees. Both ate the fleas taken from the other's head.
