Paperback. Export ed. A stunning work of fiction about contemporary immigrant life from a dazzling new writer. It's New Year's Eve 1982. At Victor and Nandini's home, family and friends gather to celebrate. Whiskey and arrack have been poured, poppadoms are freshly fried, and baila music is on the stereo. In the middle of it all is sixteen-year old Preethi, tipsy on youth, friendship, and pilfered wine, desperate to belong. Moving back and forth in time, between London and Sri Lanka, and circling the people in Preethi's world, Homesick is a poignant narrative that blends love with loss, politics with pop culture, and tradition with rebellion. 2012. First edition, first printing. A fine, unmarked copy that presents as new. N° de réf. du vendeur 5974480
