Mukherjee speaks with fellow author Hanya Yanagihara about his latest book, an explosive novel about the ramifications of choice.
Neel Mukherjee has been called “one of the most original and talented authors working today.” In his new novel, Choice, he assembles a set of connected narratives that ask us how free we really are to make our own choices. From a London-based publisher set adrift by questions of how to live ethically, to an impoverished family on the West Bengal—Bangladesh border unmoored by the unexpected gift of a cow, Mukherjee confronts our fundamental assumptions about economics, race, appropriation, and the tangled ethics of contemporary life.
He speaks with novelist and editor-in-chief of T Magazine Hanya Yanagihara.
