Longlisted for the DSC Prize for South Asian Literature What
happens when we attempt to exchange the life we are given for
something better? Five people, in very different circumstances,
from a domestic cook in Mumbai, to a vagrant and his dancing bear,
and a girl who escapes terror in her home village for a new life in
the city, find out the meanings of dislocation, and the desire for
more. Set in contemporary India and moving between the reality of
this world and the shadow of another, this novel delivers a
devastating and haunting exploration of the unquenchable human urge
to strive for a different life.
