“An ingenious, devastating, explosive novel about the ramifications of choice from “one of the most original and talented authors working today” (NPR).”
In Neel Mukherjee’s compelling new novel, a disillusioned publisher wages a personal and professional battle within an industry at odds with his ideals.
His radical experiment impacts not only his own life but also those intertwined with his. Meanwhile, an academic undergoes a profound transformation after a chance encounter alters her narrative. In rural India, a family faces the unintended consequences of a gift that shatters their lives.
These interconnected yet distinct narratives in Choice unravel a riveting exploration of freedom, responsibility, and ethics. Mukherjee provocatively challenges the dominance of market values over other forms of worth and meaning. How do our choices reverberate through our work, relationships, and our place in society? As the novel delves into economics, race, appropriation, and contemporary ethics, it dismantles myths surrounding individual choice.
Choice stands as a poignant critique of our world, blending scathing observation with compassionate inquiry into how we navigate life’s complexities and the stories we construct. Praise for Mukherjee’s latest work underscores its brilliance and relevance in today’s discourse.
