Unknown Author

4.9/5 (32295 ratings)

Description:“Ghachar Ghochar, Vivek Shanbhag’s slim novel, concerns the fate of a family that receives the kind of sudden financial success everyone dreams of. This change of circumstances threatens to explode the delicate web of their relationships — a tension the author captures, with typical economy, in the first lines of the excerpt you’re about to read: “Malati had always been unstable — a pile of gun-powder waiting to go off. All it took to light the fuse was our improved finances.” How refreshing. How clear. How confident. Shanbhag’s sentences never show any strain. Every character you meet on a page of his prose inspires a thirst to know more.” - Jonathan Lee About the Author: Vivek Shanbhag is the author of eight works of fiction and two plays, all of which have been published to wide acclaim in the South Indian language Kannada. He was a Fall 2016 resident at the International Writing Program at the University of Iowa. Ghachar Ghochar is the first of his books to appear in English. About the Guest Editor: Jonathan Lee is a British writer living in New York. His latest novel, High Dive, is out this month in paperback from Vintage. It is a Barnes & Noble Discover Great New Writers selection, an IndieBound bestseller, and was named a best book of 2016 by the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, the San Francisco Chronicle, the Chicago Tribune, Electric Literature, Lit Hub, and the Guardian. About the Translator: Srinath Perur is a writer and translator whose work has appeared in n+1, Granta, and the Guardian.
