The image lingers, strange and unshaken, like a riddle with no beginning and no end. Nearly two decades later, he is a lawyer in a quiet town in West Bengal, where days unfold in a hush of heat, dust and muffled lives. And across his street stands the crumbling and half-asleep Chinese Mansion, watching him as he watches it, as if the secrets it holds might one day explain his own. By day, he navigates the ambiguous corridors of law. He defends a man accused of violating a child.
