Krátky popis
From Subhash’s earliest memories, at every point, his brother was
there. In the suburban streets of Calcutta where they wandered
before dusk and in the hyacinth-strewn ponds where they played for
hours on end, Udayan was always in his older brother’s sight. So
close in age, they were inseparable in childhood and yet, as the
years pass – as U.S tanks roll into Vietnam and riots sweep across
India – their brotherly bond can do nothing to forestall the
tragedy that will upend their lives. Udayan – charismatic and
impulsive – finds himself drawn to the Naxalite movement, a
rebellion waged to eradicate inequity and poverty. He will give
everything, risk all, for what he believes, and in doing so will
transform the futures of those dearest to him: his newly married,
pregnant wife, his brother and their parents. For all of them, the
repercussions of his actions will reverberate across continents and
seep through the generations that follow. Epic in its canvas and
intimate in its portrayal of lives undone and forged anew, The
Lowland is a deeply felt novel of family ties that entangle and
fray in ways unforeseen and unrevealed, of ties that ineluctably
define who we are. With all the hallmarks of Jhumpa Lahiri’s
achingly poignant, exquisitely empathetic story-telling, this is
her most devastating work of fiction to date.
