Anita Desai's latest book | Slice of life
Writer Anita Desai gives us a masterpiece of a novella at 89
Anita Desai, after 13 years of silence, has given you, her reader, a rare gift. A new novel, rosarita; a new form, a novel-fragment; a new protagonist, you. If anyone (uncharitably) wondered what Desai might have to offer at 89, these 94 pages of an exquisite hardcover edition hold glimpses of magic.
