Family Affairs

The novel Family Affairs made it to the shortlist of the Booker Prize for 2002! Throughout his life, literature professor from Bombay Nariman Vakil devoted himself to others. To his students, in whom he poured his soul again and again.... To the woman he married out of obligation, truly loving another. To his biological daughter and his wife's children from her first marriage, between whom he never made a distinction, and later to his grandchildren. Now Professor Vakil is old, sick, and in need of care. However, the necessity to unite around him only stirs the fire of disagreements that torment the younger generations of the family... This story of three generations of one family from Bombay raises the most important issues relevant to people of any nationality and religious affiliation — the issues of children and parents, religion and humanity.
