About the Author:
Neel Mukherjee was born in Calcutta. He is the author of A State of Freedom, A Life Apart, winner of the Writers’ Guild of Great Britain Award for best fiction, among other honors, and The Lives of Others, which was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and won the Encore Prize. He lives in London.
Review:
“Historical and contemporary, lit with flashes of magic and violence, this intriguing novel offers multifaceted portraits of India and England as seen from the perspective of a clever, burdened misfit.”
- Huffington Post
“Consistently confounding expectations, Mukherjee’s story of the gathering descent of a solitary soul is both poignant and unsentimental, the work of a notably sophisticated writer.”
- Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)
“An elegant and accomplished debut...blends the poignancy of a coming-of-age story with the rawer excitements of an urban thriller.”
- Sunday Telegraph
“Mukherjee writes wryly and wonderfully...deeply engaging and brilliantly observed.”
- The Independent
“The writing...has a sculptured clarity. Assured and fearless...This is subtle, precise writing that penetrates character and motive with astringent humor.”
- Helen Dunmore, The Times (London)
“In this brilliant mixture of history, philosophy and science, psychiatrist and historian George Makari explores the origins of our ideas about self and that ephemeral phenomenon, the mind...Insightful, thought-provoking and encyclopedic.”
