	The Artist Of Disappearance by Anita Desai
	Price : Rs 350.00
	Your Price : Rs 280.00

A little boy grows up in the hills of Mussorie, benignly neglected by his glamourous parents. As he grows older, he finds it impossible to make a life for himself in the city and returns to his childhood home, empty of all occupants apart from his mother`s aged English companion. There a tragedy makes an unexpected artist of him. A lonely college lecturer discovers a great Oriya writer and secures a publishing deal to translate her novel. Heady with the joy of this small success, she finds herself blurring the line between translator and writer. Haunting, mysterious, written with an almost fable-like intensity, The Artist of Disappearance is another superb offering from one of India`s great novelists. isbn
