Vivek Shanbhag
Translated from the Kannada by Srinath Perur
“Not since Kafka has a writer created such terror and tenderness on the same page. Vivek is probably the best writer writing in any language anywhere . . . If you want to read one novel from anywhere in the world, read Sakina’s Kiss.” —Mohammed Hanif
A taut story of hidden violence and self-deception from “an Indian Chekhov” (Suketu Mehta)
