Forlagsbeskrivelse af The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny af KIRAN DESAI
A spellbinding story of two young people whose fates intersect and diverge across continents and years"”an epic of love and family, India and America, tradition and modernity, by the Booker Prize-winning author of The Inheritance of Loss ''A novel so wonderful, when I got to the last page, I turned to the first and began again'' Sandra Cisneros ''A grand and stirring love story, written in exquisite prose . . [a] sheer delight!'' Namwali Serpell When Sonia and Sunny first glimpse each other on an overnight train, they are immediately captivated, yet also embarrassed by the fact that their grandparents had once tried to matchmake them, a clumsy meddling that only served to drive Sonia and Sunny apart. Sonia, an aspiring novelist who recently completed her studies in the snowy mountains of Vermont, has returned to her family in India, fearing she is haunted by a dark spell cast by an artist to whom she had once turned for intimacy and inspiration. Sunny, a struggling journalist resettled in New York City, is attempting to flee his imperious mother and the violence of his warring clan. Uncertain of their future, Sonia and Sunny embark on a search for happiness together as they confront the many alienations of our modern world. The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny is the sweeping tale of two young people navigating the many forces that shape their lives: country, class, race, history, and the complicated bonds that link one generation to the next. A love story, a family saga, and a rich novel of ideas, it is the most ambitious and accomplished work yet by one of our greatest novelists.
