| Will Mendelsohn is a modern-day Darwin whose first book on extinction has made him a great success. To get underway with work on his follow-up， he sets off on a worldwide research trip. He makes a special visit to Assam， a state in northeast India， so that he can spend time with his mother s friend Mim， a Holocaust survivor in frail health. But once he meets Mim s enigmatic neighbor， a married expatriate screenwriter named Grace Tagore， Will s brief stop turns into an extended stay. As the two are drawn by their haunted pasts into a transformative affair， Assam erupts in political turmoil， setting off an irrevocable chain of events that forever alter their lives. With a remarkable gift for language and storytelling， author Janice Deaner pens a novel of extraordinary depth and power， where amid the lavish tea gardens of a beautiful yet strife- ridden India， a compelling story of romance， friendship， and self-discovery brilliantly unfolds. |
