A lonely man on a business trip finds himself in the middle of a search party for a missing boy; a grieving widow leaves India to join family in the United States; a writer finds renewed success when an unknown imposter begins publishing under his identity. In these quiet yet deeply knowing stories of migration, power, and longing, A New Race of Men from Heaven offers us, above all else, stories of enduring love and hope.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49741859160337,"sku":"NGR9781956046021","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49803468374289,"sku":"CIN195604602XG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51059546587409,"sku":"NIN9781956046021","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52345686262033,"sku":"NLS9781956046021","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53645842972945,"sku":"CIN195604602XVG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/195604602X.jpg?v=1750997716"},{"product_id":"pathless-sky-book-chaitali-sen-9781609452919","title":"The Pathless Sky","description":"In \u003ci\u003eThe Pathless Sky\u003c\/i\u003e, Chaitali Sen conjures a world in which a nation's political turmoil, its secret history and growing social unrest turn life into a fragile and capricious thing and love into a necessary refuge to be defended at all cost. A world not unlike the one we live in. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJohn, a hapless young student with a potentially brilliant academic career ahead of him, and Mariam, a shy, preternaturally perceptive woman from the north, meet and fall in love in college. Their early careers, their seemingly mismatched natures, and the alarming changes occurring in their country conspire to keep them apart for years. But a day comes when, across a great distance, both realize that they have always loved each other. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDuring the intervening years, however, the troubles in their country have reached a critical impasse. Government crimes have been white washed, personal liberty is deeply compromised, a resistance movement has emerged from the underground to take the fight for freedom to the streets, and the government militia employs increasingly draconian measures in an attempt to maintain control. When Mariam is implicated in the latest spell of anti-government actions and arrested without appeal, the consequences of her and John's love will prove potentially dire for both. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Pathless Sky\u003c\/i\u003e is a haunting and moving novel for readers of Michael Ondaatje's \u003ci\u003eThe English Patient\u003c\/i\u003e, Jhumpa Lahiri's \u003ci\u003eThe Lowland\u003c\/i\u003e, and the novels of Amitav Ghosh. Sen's lyrical language and fluid storytelling mirror the rhythms of political struggle itself. John and Mariam are unforgettable characters, troubled lovers who struggle to find a space for the finest human emotions in a place that is determined to abolish them.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50227115720977,"sku":"CIN1609452917VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50384136339729,"sku":"CIN1609452917A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52498534629649,"sku":"GOR014540441","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52858972307729,"sku":"NIN9781609452919","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1609452917.jpg?v=1751245956"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-chaitali-sen.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
