À propos du livre
Strung out on cocaine, Dilarang Membuang stands atop a boulder in a dog park of Lake Ontario, arms outstretched to the sky. He awaits the arrival of the two hit man who will blow him to pieces.
A slew of ordinary and unconventional lives are ultimately affected by his death. The are interconnected by events that reach far and wide.
Aisha, Dilarang's sister half way around the world, must somehow find a way out of the slums of Dhaka and reclaim a life that doesn't include spreading her legs, or reneging on her faith. Meanwhile, Carol wrestles with past and present demons of her brother Barry, only to find herself and everyone else, a part of them. And Flo, missing Ms. V, uses telephone sex to get over her grief, and becomes entangled in the unfolding events.
A contemporary novel with a melange of characters that participate wittingly and unwittingly in two deaths-including one Dilarang Membuang.
