From the Pulitzer Prize-winning, bestselling author of The Namesake comes an extraordinary novel, set in India and America, that tells the story of two brothers bound by tragedy, a fiercely brilliant woman haunted by her past, a country torn by revolution, and a love that lasts long past death. Born just fifteen months apart, Subhash and Udayan Mitra grow up in a Calcutta neighborhood but have gravely different futures ahead. In the 1960s, Udayan is drawn to the Naxalite movement, risking all for what he believes, while Subhash pursues a life of scientific research in America. When tragedy strikes, Subhash returns to India to heal the wounds left behind.
