Amazon.com description: Product Description:
âEnchanting. . . . Suriâs novel achieves an eerie and memorable transcendence.ââTime
In Manil Suriâs debut novel, Vishnu, the odd-job man, lies dying on the staircase of an apartment building while around him unfold the lives of its inhabitants: warring housewives, lovesick teenagers, a grieving widower. In a fevered state, Vishnu looks back on his love affair with the seductive Padmini and wonders if he might actually be the god Vishnu, guardian of the entire universe.Editions
