Where Worlds Collide

Kiran Desai in conversation with Ashok Ferrey
Explore the profound role of landscapes—both literal and metaphorical—in Kiran Desai’s storytelling. Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard, where the orchard serves as a whimsical backdrop for themes of tradition, solitude, and rebellion; The Inheritance of Loss, where the mountainous terrain of Kalimpong amplifies themes of cultural dislocation and identity.
