The Inheritance of Loss

---

In a crumbling, isolated house at the foot of Mount Kanchenjunga lives an embittered judge who wants only to retire in peace from a world he has found too messy for justice, when his orphaned granddaughter, Sai, arrives on his doorstep. The judge's cook watches over her distractedly, for his thoughts are claimed by his son, Biju, who is hopscotching from one gritty New York restaurant to another on an elusive search for green card. When an Indian - Nepali insurgency in the montains interrupsts Sai's romance with her Nepali tutor, and causes their lives to descend into chaos, they are forced to concider their colliding interests. This majestic novel of our busy, grasping times illuminates the consequences of colonialism and global conflicts of religion, race and nasionalism.
