When his wife Lakshmi begins to question their life together and their nephew Ashish comes to stay, the fragile balance of their household starts to shift.Through family tensions, unspoken desires and unexpected relationships, the novel explores love, loneliness, identity and belonging with humour and compassion. As Mohan watches those around him struggle and change, he is forced to confront his own fears, ambitions and the possibility of finding his voice at last.Gentle, moving and beautifully written, this is a remarkable debut from one of Britain's most celebrated young writers. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/book-of-the-month/10000886147510057 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 23 hours - Location: Kensington Central Library - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Kensington Central Library - **lat**: 51.5012638 - **long**: -0.19450259999996433 - **full address**: Kensington Central Library, 12 Phillimore Walk, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Book of the Month - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/2dd4ec2daee3f85a76537b02263d15baf2f38622fd7ab8560e35338fbcb885f6-rimg-w1176-h712-dcf0f1f5-gmir.jpg?v=1770702633 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Book of the Month being held? - **A:** Book of the Month takes place on Mon, 29 Apr, 2024 at 06:30 pm to Mon, 07 Dec, 2026 at 05:30 pm at Kensington Central Library, 12 Phillimore Walk, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Book of the Month? - **A:** Book of the Month is organized by Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Libraries. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
