About The Book

A superbly crafted novel from award-winning Indian novelist Sunetra Gupta After years of absence American travel writer Max Gate returns to Bengal to the beach home of his longtime friend the businessman Byron Mallick. The occasion is a funeral: for Damini fervent investigative journalist and founder of a womens shelter with whom Max once collaborated until ultimately she scorned the book he wrote on their work together. It is irrefutable that Byron Mallick donated not milk but milk adulterated with chalk to the women and children at Daminis shelter-but did he also to save his reputation have her killed? The weight of this question burdens each character in this intricate superbly crafted novel-Max; his former brother-in-law Piers OReilly convinced of Byrons guilt; and Daminis cousin and Byrons former ward Ela whose affair with Max has haunted both their lives ending his marriage and setting him unaccountably adrift. Sunetra Guptas consummate prose recreates the ache and complication of memory as Max considers the tantalizing ambiguities of each of their pasts the exquisite layers of emotion and action out of which perhaps the truth about Byron may be revealed.
