Product info
<p>"Lyrical and gripping. . . . There's something magical about the ways in which Appanah makes the betrayals, the falsehoods, the appropriations and the disasters seem inevitable."<b>--<i>BBC Culture </i></b></p><p>"[Appanah's] beautiful prose shines through this translation by Geoffrey Strachan, allowing her to lay bare the danger of words not<br> spoken and the volatility of dreams denied."<b>--<i>Star Tribune</i> </b>(Minneapolis) </p><p>"Fans of literary fiction and the exploration of the artist will appreciate <i>Waiting for Tomorrow</i>'s attention to language and the way the narrative moves between prologue, incident, and aftermath."<b>--<i>Washington Independent Review of Books </i></b></p><p>"Appanah meticulously brings the narrative back in time and then forward, deliberately parceling out pieces of information as the narrative awaits its own unsettling conclusion."<b>--<i>Words Without Borders</i></b></p><p>"The novel ends in high drama--with lives cut short and dreams unfulfilled, with Appanah making it painfully apparent that life is little more than a collector's inventory, a long list of choices and consequences that live on in our memories despite our best efforts to forget. <i>Waiting for Tomorrow</i> aches with longing."<b>--<i>The Arkansas International</i></b></p><p>"[<i>Waiting for Tomorrow</i>'s] second act complications produce a genuine page-turning tension that almost feels out of place in a book filled with such lovely language and down-to-earth realities."<b>--<i>Open Letters Review</i></b></p><p>"Rewarding. . . . the characters are complicated and well-drawn and the story immersive."<b>--<i>Publishers Weekly</i></b><br><b><i></i></b><br><b><i></i></b>"Appanah's tightly told tale offers an affecting story of displacement, regret, and the meaning of home."<b>--<i>Booklist</i></b></p>
