Description
Dinesh, a rare-book dealer from Bangladesh, has long grown accustomed to a quiet, measured life and became a homebody after settling in Brooklyn. And everything was going as usual until Fate unexpectedly sends him on an unusual journey that turns Dinesh’s world upside down. He must follow the path from New York to India, and then — to Venice—following the winding trails of memories and experiences of those he meets along the way. They all are links in one story. Where will this tangled journey lead?
“A gunman Island” by Amitav Ghosh is a novel with a brilliantly realized concept. A story about a world on the brink of global catastrophe and inevitable transformation easily moves through space and time. The author convincingly shows that even serious works of fiction have room for incredible plots. In the work, many literary lines intersect: realism and mysticism, social criticism and elemental prophecies, climate change and divine intervention, progress and tradition, detective fiction and adventure.
