  <abstract>Opening in Calcutta in the 1960s, Ghosh's radiant second  novel follows two families. one English, one Bengali, as  their lives intertwine in tragic and comic ways. The  narrator, Indian-born and English educated, traces events  back and forth in time, through years of Bengali partition  and violence, observing the ways in which political events  invade private lives.</abstract>
