A novel moving between the US and modern India, following the illicit liaisons, real estate dramas, political ambitions, and mortal betrayals of one prominent Delhi family.
One starts to wonder: Where could all this possibly be going? Mahajan knows exactly where it’s going ... Magisterial ... His work has always woven a subversive, contemporary sensibility into a traditional, almost 19th-century approach to form and style.
Exquisite ... With astonishing economy, clarity and suggestiveness, Mahajan creates a memorable family and depicts a conflicted India lurching into the present. This piercing novel is a book to read and read again.
