具体描述
At the foot of Mount Kanchenjunga in the Himalayas, lives an embittered old judge who wants nothing more than to retire in peace. But with the arrival of his orphaned granddaughter, Sai, and his cook's son trying to stay a step ahead of US immigration services, this is far from easy. When a Nepalese insurgency threatens Sai's blossoming romance with her handsome tutor they are forced to consider their colliding interests. The judge must revisit his past, his own journey and his role in this grasping world of conflicting desires every moment holding out the possibility for hope or betrayal.
作者简介
基兰·德赛，1971年出生于印度，15岁时定居英国，目前是美国哥伦比亚大学写作班的一名学生。德赛的母亲阿妮塔·德赛也是非常知名的作家，她自1980年起就曾三次进入布克奖的总决选名单，可惜从未折桂。阿妮塔曾经劝说女儿不要进入这个行列，理由是写作太难。而女儿最终以自己的成就给予母亲最大的安慰和回报。基兰·德赛的处女作《番石榴园的喧哗》曾受到各方的一致赞誉。2006年她凭借第二部长篇小说《失落》（The Inheritance of Loss，又译为《失落之遗产》）获得布克奖，成为有史以来赢得该奖项的最年轻的女作家。
