Fury

Malik Solanka, historian of ideas and dollmaker extraordinaire, steps out of his life one day, abandons his family without a word of explanation, and flees London for New York City, fearing he has become dangerous to those he loves. "But fury is all around him," it's New York City, filled with improbable characters & scenarios, as pitiless as it is mesmerizing. Not since the Bombay of Rushdie's earlier Midnight's Children have a time and place been sointensely and accurately captured in a novel. 259p.
