Hardcover, UK | Signed | 7th Printing | 2009 | Publisher: Hamish Hamilton
An exceptional signed copy from Kiran Desai — winner of the Man Booker Prize 2006, one of the most prestigious literary awards in the world, for this very novel. The daughter of the celebrated novelist Anita Desai, Kiran Desai confirmed her own extraordinary talent with The Inheritance of Loss, a sweeping, beautifully written novel set in the foothills of the Himalayas in 1980s India during a violent insurgency. The novel explores themes of post-colonialism, exile, class, and belonging with rare emotional intelligence and lyrical power. A Booker Prize winner signed by the author is a significant collector's piece in any literary collection.
