Gun Island

A Novel

Amitav Ghosh

Gun Island is a globetrotting adventure novel that explores family and heritage through the journey of a rare book dealer, Deen Datta. His beliefs are challenged when he encounters a fellow Bengali-American, an entrepreneurial young man, and an old friend, leading him on a path that upends everything he knew about himself and the world. Amitav Ghosh's beautifully realized novel spans both space and time, portraying a world on the brink of unstoppable transition but also offering hope through the faith of two remarkable women.
