THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER AND MODERN CLASSIC
'A phenomenon, a prodigy, a marvel' Evening Standard
'You should make time for it. It will keep you company for the rest of your life' The Times
'Vast . . . amiably peopled . . . a long sweet, sleepless pilgrimage to life' Guardian
ONE OF THE BBC'S 100 NOVELS THAT SHAPED OUR WORLD
A modern classic, this epic tale of families, romance and political intrigue, set in India, never loses its power to delight and enchant readers.
At its core, A Suitable Boy is a love story: the tale of Lata - and her mother's - attempts to find her a suitable husband, through love or through exacting maternal appraisal. At the same time, it is the story of India, newly independent and struggling through a time of crisis as a sixth of the world's population faces its first great general election and the chance to map its own destiny.

'The greatness of the novel, its unassailable truthfulness, owes less to research than to imagination, an instinctive knowledge of the human heart' Observer
