Description
VINTAGE QUARTERBOUND CLASSICS - Bound to be beautiful
A beautiful hardback edition of a modern Indian classic and winner of 'The Best of the Booker' - the best novel from Booker Prize history.
Born at the stroke of midnight at the exact moment of India’s independence, Saleem Sinai is a special child. However, this coincidence of birth has consequences he is not prepared for—telepathic powers connect him with 1,000 other 'midnight’s children', all of whom are endowed with unusual gifts. Inextricably linked to his nation, Saleem’s story is a whirlwind of disasters and triumphs that mirrors the course of modern India at its most impossible and glorious.
'A wonderful, rich and humane novel that is safe to call a classic' Guardian
