    A Suitable Boy: THE CLASSIC BESTSELLER AND MAJOR BBC DRAMA

    Vikram Seth

    Formats & Editions

    Vikram Seth's novel is at its core a love story, the tale of Lata - and her mother's attempts to find her a suitable husband, through love or through exacting maternal appraisal.

    Set in post-Independence India and involving the lives of four large families and those who orbit them, it is also a vast panoramic exploration of a whole continent at a crucial hour as a sixth of the world's population faces its first great General Election and the chance to map its own destiny.
