By the esteemed author of Black Narcissus. 'Her craftsmanship is
always sure; her understanding of character is compassionate and
profound; her prose is pure, delicate, and gently witty' New York
Times Harriet is caught between two worlds: her older sister is no
longer a playmate, her brother is still a little boy. And the
comforting rhythm of her Indian childhood - the sounds of the jute
factory, the colourful festivals that accompany each season and the
eternal ebb and flow of the river on its journey to the Bay of
Bengal - is about to be shattered by a tragic event. Intense,
vivid, and with a dark undertow, The River is a poignant portrait
of the loss of a young girl's innocence. 'The River will make you
laugh, make you cry and, in its way, change you forever' Julie
Myerson Available with Virago Modern Classics.
