A New World

Faber & Faber

A year after his divorce, Jayojit Chatterjee, an economics professor in the American Midwest, travels home to Calcutta with his young son, Bonny, to spend the summer holidays with his parents. Jayojit is no more accustomed to spending time alone with Bonny \u2013 who lives with his mother in California \u2013 than he is with the Admiral and his wife, whose daily rhythms have become so synchronized as to become completely foreign to their son.\nTogether, the unlikely foursome struggles to pass the protracted hours of summer, each in his or her own way mourning Jayojit\u2019s failed marriage. Written with depth and tenderness, A New World goes right to the heart of a family, making vividly alive their hopes, desires and regrets.\n\nA New World\n\nFree UK delivery on this item.\n\nThis brand new item is available with free UK delivery using Royal Mail tracked services.\n\nPlease note that the price advertised is as low as we can go, we do not accept offers.\n\nA year after his divorce, ;
