Gun Island - Grand Format

A dealer of rare books, Deen Datta is used to a quiet life spent indoors, but as his once-solid beliefs begin to shift, he is forced to set out on an extraordinary journey ; one that takes him from India to Los Angeles and Venice via a tangled route through the memories and experiences of those he meets along the way. There is Piya, a fellow Bengali-American who sets his journey in motion ; Tipu, an entrepreneurial young man who opens Deen's eyes to the realities of growing up in today's world ; Rafi, with his desperate attempt to help someone in need ; and Cinta, an old friend who provides the missing link in the story they are all a part of.
Gun Island is about a world on the brink, of increasing displacement and unstoppable transition. But it is also a story of hope, of a man whose faith in the world and the future is restored by two remarkable women.
