Description
A family drama about the eternal problem of children and parents.
The novel “Family Affairs” made it into the shortlist for the Booker Prize in 2002!
For all his life, the literature professor from Bombay, Nariman Vakil, devoted himself to others—students, into whom he repeatedly put his soul; the woman he married out of duty, though he loved someone else; his native daughter and the wife’s children from her first marriage, between whom he never made a distinction; and later—his grandchildren.
Now Professor Vakil is old, sick, and needs care. But the need to unite around him only fans the fire of disagreements that torment the younger generations of the family…
This story of three generations of one Bombay family raises the most important problems relevant to any person, regardless of nationality or religion—problems of children and parents, religion and humaneness.
