The City of Devi, which takes its name from Muimbai's patron goddess, is Mr. Suri's most ambitious fusion of large-canvas strife with intimate stories of troubled romance. . . . [I]ts cinematic effects are heavy-handed. . . . and the novel's sex scenes, which stand in buoyant contrast to the threat of nuclear extinction, bring out his best writing--he captures the insecurity, the curiosity and even the comedy of those vulnerable moments without stooping to prurience. Appartient à la sérieThe Hindu Gods (Book 3) Prix et récompenses
"Mumbai has emptied under the threat of imminent nuclear annihilation; gangs of marauding Hindu and Muslim thugs rove the desolate streets; yet Sarita can think of only one thing: buying the last pomegranate that remains in perhaps the entire city. She is convinced that the fruit holds the key to reuniting her with her physicist husband, Karun, who has been mysteriously missing for more than a fortnight."--Provided by publisher.
