A Shortlist Nominee Historical Saga of 1960s Calcutta, Naxalite Rebellions, and Family Legacy

Raised in 1960s Calcutta near a lowland marsh, brothers Subhash and Udayan Mitra choose divergent paths. Charismatic Udayan joins the radical Naxalite peasant rebellion, while studious Subhash emigrates to Rhode Island to pursue a doctorate in marine chemistry.

When Udayan is executed by paramilitary police for insurgent activities, Subhash returns to India to support his grieving family. To protect Udayan's pregnant, radicalized widow Gauri from family hostility, Subhash marries her and brings her to New England, revealing decades of secrets across two continents.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Pulitzer Prize-winner Jhumpa Lahiri crafts a sweeping saga nominated for both the Man Booker Prize and National Book Award. Essential reading for fans of Arundhati Roy, Rohinton Mistry, and Kiran Desai.
