Swimmer Among the Stars
announces the arrival of a writer who is gifted not just with extraordinary
talent but also with a subtle, original and probing mind.? – Amitav Ghosh.
The fiction debut of the year. An interview with the last speaker of a
language. A chronicle of the final seven days of a town that is about to be
razed to the ground by an invading army. The lonely voyage of an elephant
from Kerala to a princess?s palace in Morocco. A fabled cook who flavours his
food with precious stones. A coterie of international diplomats trapped in
near-earth orbit. These, and the other stories in this collection, reveal an
extraordinary storyteller, whose tales emerge from a tradition that includes
the creators of the Arabian Nights and the Kathasaritsagara, Italo Calvino,
Jorge Luis Borges, Angela Carter and other ancient and modern masters of
fabulist, surrealist and magical short stories. Furiously inventive,
beautifully crafted and remarkably assured, Swimmer Among the Stars announces
the arrival of a blazing new talent.
