Koonty, a young Indian girl is squatting in pain beside the river, convinced that her agony is the result of a fish allergy. It's not - she's giving birth. Horrified, she places the baby onto a piece of floating debris, fixes her own necklace around his neck and pushes him downriver.

Recenzii

'Sara Banerji is a very gifted storyteller - such is the passion and conviction of her narrative. She seems a natural, a writer of great warmth and directness. It must be a serious contender for this year's Booker Prize.' The Times 'An ingenious and surprising novel. Banerji performs nimble creative tricks. Her adaptation of an essential human story, which shows that life everywhere follows certain primary patterns, might make this an Indiacentric Ulysses.' TLS 'It's not like any other book set in India I've ever read - there's no striving to be exotic - it's rich, exciting and moving, at ease depicting the workings of a big, affluent landed household, yet equally confident in its dealings with urban street life. This is a lovely big book.' Barbara Trapido
