New York: HarperPerennial, April 1994. Trade Paperback. First Paperback Edition / full number line. Very Good+. Unmarked. Spine lightly curved but uncreased. Edgewear. Not from a library. No remainder mark. Not clipped. 1474 pages. Winner of the Commonwealth Writers' Prize for Best Book Overall (1994). Lata and her mother, Mrs. Rupa Mehra, are both trying to find—through love or through exacting maternal appraisal—a suitable boy for Lata to marry. Set in the early 1950s, in an India newly independent and struggling through a time of crisis, A Suitable Boy takes us into the richly imagined world of four large extended families and spins a compulsively readable tale of their lives and loves. A sweeping panoramic portrait of a complex, multiethnic society in flux, A Suitable Boy remains the story of ordinary people caught up in a web of love and ambition, humor and sadness, prejudice and reconciliation, the most delicate social etiquette and the most appalling violence.
