Seller Description
The Inheritance of Loss by Kiran Desai is a profound and beautifully layered novel that explores identity, love, and the lasting impact of colonialism. Set in a remote Himalayan town, the story weaves together the lives of Sai, a young girl living with her reclusive grandfather, and Biju, a cook’s son navigating the challenges of immigrant life in America. As personal and political conflicts collide, Desai paints a vivid portrait of cultural dislocation and the human longing for belonging. Poetic, powerful, and deeply moving, this Booker Prize-winning novel is a masterpiece of modern literature.
