"It's true what they say--it's not we who control money, it's the money that controls us." In this masterful novel by the acclaimed Indian writer Vivek Shanbhag, a close-knit family is delivered from near-destitution to sudden wealth after the narrator's uncle founds a successful spice company. As the narrator--a sensitive young man who is never named--his sister, his parents, and his uncle move from a cramped, ant-infested shack to a larger house and begin to grow accustomed to their newfound wealth, the family dynamics begin to shift. Allegiances and desires realign; marriages are arranged and begin to falter; and conflict brews ominously in the background. Things begin to become "ghachar ghochar"--A nonsense phrase that, to the narrator, comes to mean something entangled beyond repair. Told in clean, urgent prose, and punctuated by moments of unexpected warmth and humor, Ghachar Ghochar is a quietly enthralling, deeply unsettling novel about the shifting meanings--and consequences--of financial gain in contemporary India"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aFamilies$zIndia$vFiction$9lat$2NLI 606 $aIndia$xSocial conditions$vFiction$9lat$2NLI 607 $aIndia$xSocial conditions$vFiction 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aFamilies 615 7$aIndia$xSocial conditions 676 $a894.8/14371 686 $aFIC019000$aFIC045000$aFIC025000$2bisacsh 700 $aS?a?nabha?ga$b Vive?ka$01245998 702 $aPerur$b Srinath 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910156241303321 996 $aGhachar ghochar$92889302 997 $aUNINA
