Abstract

The last ten years of growth in the Indian

economy has nurtured dreams of the ‘good

life’ among both the rich and the poor in

the city of Mumbai (Bombay). The city

and the home are important scenes in

which the realizations of this metropolis’

16 million inhabitants are played out.

Whilst the middle classes, to an ever growing

extent, realize dreams of the good

life, inspired by the tranquil suburban life

of the Western middle-class, the underclass

must employ other life strategies in

their attempt to turn dreams into reality.
