The joys of climbing trees and secretly raiding Mom's larder, fisticuffs and swigging leftover church wine as little altar boys, glorious story times with Dad, and growing up as a dreamer...
Sukh Sagar-An Era of Innocence is the story of young Mickey living out his fantasies, battling and surviving the realities around him. It is the story of Mangala, a town steeped in superstitions and prejudices, with fascinating folklore, replete with battles and legends. It is also the story of the Christian community with a checkered past-tracing their ancestry to the legendary Saraswati River and Parasuram, who fled Goa to survive the Portuguese Inquisition only to be incarcerated for 15 long years in the dungeons of Tipu Sultan.
Ex-supercop Maxwell Pereira narrates the tale of a family home, that was the veritable 'ocean of happiness', with its quirky members in the background of Mangalore's rich history.
