A Hindi film star . . . an American missionary . . . twins separated at birth . . . a dwarf chauffeur . . . a serial killer . . . all are on a collision course. In the tradition of A Prayer for Owen Meany, Irving's characters transcend nationality. They are misfits--coming from everywhere, belonging nowhere. Set almost entirely in India, this is John Irving's most ambitious novel and a major publishing event.
Dr. Farrokh Daruwalla, reared in Bombay, educated in Vienna, and long a resident of Toronto, is a 59-year-old without a country, culture, or religion to call his own. . . Irving's imagined India, which Daruwalla visits periodically . . . [is] a land of energetic colliding egos, of modern media clashing with ancient cultures, of broken sexual boundaries.-- New York Newsday.
