Aprašymas
For fans of The Kite Runner and Slumdog Millionaire, a rags to riches epic.
By the banks of the River Yamuna in northern India, whererice paddies of basmati merge into fields of sugarcane,
twelve-year-old Madan arrives with his family in the factory
town of Gorapur. Madan’s father, drunk and abusive, threatens
the family’s already tenuous, lowly position in Gorapur,
finally committing an unforgivable crime. But when Madan’s
sharp mind and hardened determination catch the attention
of Avtaar Singh, his father’s employer and the most powerful
man in town, everything seems to change for Madan and for
his family. Avtaar Singh becomes a father to Madan in every
way except in blood.
In his journey from impoverished boy to powerful man,
Madan will have to bargain for his life and for the lives of
those he loves. A novel about fathers and sons, the ties that
bind, and the barriers of class that even love cannot break,
The Three Bargains is a stunning debut.
