AUTHOR CHAT: Manil Suri, The Age of Shiva

Join SAJA for a live web radio discussion with Manil Suri, author of his highly-anticipated follow-up to "The Death of Vishnu," which is entitled "The Age of Shiva" (Norton, Feb. 2008). "In THE AGE OF SHIVA India's birth as a new nation parallels a woman's complex psychological journey confronting tradition and modernity. Exchanging sentimentality for clear vision, Suri reveals an immense humanity, and a tenderness for women making their way in a world of men." - Kiran Desai
