Produktinformationen zu „Fasting, Feasting “
Shortlisted for the Booker Prize, this warm, beautiful novel explores the intricate nets of family life in both India and America.
Klappentext zu „Fasting, Feasting “
Uma, the plain, spinster daughter of a close-knit Indian family, is trapped at home, smothered by her overbearing parents and their traditions, unlike her ambitious younger sister Aruna, who brings off a 'good' marriage, and brother Arun, the disappointing son and heir who is studying in America.Across the world in Massachusetts, life with the Patton family is bewildering for Arun in the alien culture of freedom, freezers and paradoxically self-denying self-indulgence.
