A newly Independent India in the throes of political tension, four family lines — the Mehras, Kapoors, Khans and Chatterjis — and the complex web of human relationships, a Literature student, Lata, seeking to create her identity, nostalgia-tinted recollections of different cities, like Calcutta and Delhi— Vikram Seth’s magnum opus, A Suitable Boy, offers a panorama of India and so much more. It is as much about the banality of ritualistic matchmaking as it is about the nuances of love that transcends the hurdles of what is deemed socially acceptable.
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Seth’s humongous masterpiece, Speaking Tiger Books has released a limited edition of a three-volume set of A Suitable Boy on May 19, 2023, which comes in an elegantly designed box with the title calligraphed by the author. So, hurry! Get one for your personal library today!
