About this book
Beginning in a Delhi graveyard where a hijra named Anjum has made a home, this expansive novel gathers an unlikely household: an activist architect, a journalist, an intelligence officer and a foundling who binds them together. Moving between the capital's rooftops and the militarised valleys of Kashmir, Roy writes a fractured, furious, often funny portrait of contemporary India seen from its margins. The structure is deliberately unruly, looping through decades and voices, and the sentences are lush and startling. A big, demanding, tender book about the families people assemble when the state has failed them.
