Review

This carefully sculpted novel with its minutely observed cameos of intertwined relationships builds up to a compelling montage of urban aspirations, of love and loneliness, friendship and sorority, art and redemption. -- Namita Gokhale

What a wonder it is to read Manju Kapur-to follow the lives of these women, their political tussles, their great compromises, their grasps at freedom, their loves, their losses. I enjoyed The Gallery so much, for its wit and honesty, for the skillfully entangled threads moving between class, families, neighbourhoods, countries. All this most marvellously framed by the changing, burgeoning Indian art world. The novel asks many questions of us, including this: how do women become the artists of their own lives? -- Janice Pariat

About the Author

Manju Kapur is the author of six novels. Her first, Difficult Daughters, won the Commonwealth Writers’ Prize for Best First Book (Eurasia Section). The Immigrant was shortlisted for the DSC Prize for South Asian Literature.
