The Artist Of Disappearance - Hardcover
A little boy grows up in the hills of mussorie, benignly neglected by his glamorous parents. As he grows older, he finds it impossible to make a life for himself in the city and returns tohis childhood home, empty of all occupants apart from his mother's aged English companion. There a tragedy makes an unexpected artist of him.A lonely college lecturer discovers a great oriya writer and secures a publishing deal to translate hernovel. Heady with the joy of this small success, she finds herself blurring the line between translator and writer.Haunting, mysterious, written with an almost fable - like intensity, the artist of disappearance is another superb offering from one of india's great novelists.
