A son’s idealistic ambition to change the world has devastating consequences for his family and beyond, in Neel Mukherjee’s vividly powerful novel, which chronicles the vicissitudes of the extended Ghosh family as internal rivalries accompany the implosion of the family business and external social unrest. 

Calcutta, 1967. Unnoticed by his family, Supratik has become dangerously involved in extremist political activism. All he leaves behind before disappearing is a note. At home, his family slowly begins to unravel. Poisonous rivalries grow, the once-thriving family business implodes and destructive secrets are unearthed. And all around them the sands are shifting as society fractures, for this is a moment of turbulence, of inevitable and unstoppable change.

"Unfailingly beautiful.... Resembles a tone poem in its dazzling orchestration of the crescendo of domestic racket. His eye is as acute as his ear: the physicality of people and objects is delineated with a hyper-aesthetic vividness."  -  The New Statesman (UK)

"Very ambitious and very successful... One of Mukherjee's great gifts is precisely his capacity to imagine the lives of others... Neel Mukherjee terrifies and delights us simultaneously." The Guardian (UK)

Neel Mukherjee is the author of two highly acclaimed novels.  A Life Apart (2010) won the Writers’ Guild of Great Britain Award for best novel. The Lives of Others (2014) was shortlisted for the Booker Prize, the Costa Best Novel Award, and won the Encore Prize for best second novel.
