The Front List - Kiran Desai

After a 20-year wait, Kiran Desai returns with another spellbinding epic. Following two young lovers across continents, The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny is a sweeping love story and a dazzling meditation on class, race, migration, and the many forms of modern loneliness. This is a rare opportunity to hear the Booker-winning author of The Inheritance of Loss reflect on solitude in all its forms, and why only novels can truly get at the raw truth of human experience.
