ISBN: 9780865478244 / 0865478244 - The Way Things Were: A Novel by Aatish Taseer. Published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2015. Hardcover. Used, Excellent condition. 563 pp.
An absorbing family saga set amid the commotion of the last forty years of Indian history. The Way Things Were is both an intimate portrait of a family and a panoramic vision of the last half century of life in Delhi, with Sanskrit woven in as central metaphor and chorus. Through one man's struggle with his inheritance, it explores the cultural schizophrenia of modern India and the difficulty of building honestly on the past.
