This is a novel that rewards reading, and even re-reading. The World We Found is a powerful meditation.” —Boston Globe Thrity Umrigar, acclaimed author of The Space Between Us and The Weight of Heaven, returns with a breathtaking new novel—a skillfully wrought, emotionally resonant story of four women and the indelible friendship they share As university students in late 1970s Bombay, Armaiti, Laleh, Kavita, and Nishta were inseparable. Spirited and unconventional, they challenged authority and fought for a better world. But over the past thirty years, the quartet has drifted apart, the day-to-day demands of work and family tempering the revolutionary fervor they once shared. Then comes devastating news: Armaiti, who moved to America, is gravely ill and wants to see the old friends she left behind. For Laleh, reunion is a bittersweet reminder of unfulfilled dreams and unspoken guilt. For Kavita, it is an admission of forbidden passion. For Nishta, it is the promise of freedom from a bitter, fundamentalist husband. And for Armaiti, it is an act of acceptance, of letting go on her own terms. The World We Found is a dazzling masterwork from the remarkable Thrity Umrigar, offering an unforgettable portrait of modern India while it explores the enduring bonds of friendship and the power of love to change lives.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx2864j1v6cyh4qtsz1tmq31.jpg?v=1589a9f41a","LTOC1YpZ?ZQ.yWWGiwX8~TVZE4jE",2012,221,[289],{"id":290,"slug":291,"name":292},"01kx241wmna6h9pkfq26sn3jj2","thrity-umrigar-ztpe","Thrity Umrigar",[294,295],{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},{"id":296,"name":297,"slug":298,"is_fiction":20},144,"Women's Fiction","womens-fiction",[],{"pace":301,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":302,"themes":304,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},"moderate",[303,139],"emotional",[],{"id":306,"slug":307,"title":308,"description":14,"primary_cover_url":309,"cover_blurhash":310,"first_publish_year":311,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":312,"authors":313,"genres":318,"series":324,"enrichment":325},"01kx285t1rd0s91zheaq7v4cxp","pallbearers-club-80wj","Pallbearers Club","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx285t2c03zf866m2bhm2pcw.jpg?v=f20cb10e10","LlJu79tk$*kVovbusoW;~UtkMyWC",2022,288,[314],{"id":315,"slug":316,"name":317},"01kjsycgt7zm73s8vdm25vfhst","paul-tremblay-uigm","Paul Tremblay",[319,320],{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},{"id":321,"name":322,"slug":323,"is_fiction":20},15,"Drama","drama",[],{"pace":104,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":326,"themes":327,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},[109,139],[],{"id":329,"slug":330,"title":331,"description":14,"primary_cover_url":332,"cover_blurhash":333,"first_publish_year":334,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":335,"authors":336,"genres":341,"series":345,"enrichment":346},"01kwzx3e2fm2cv5ye5k3jsfjg3","hades-argentina-uwzf","Hades, Argentina","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kwzx3e36n6xnrtyn9bsqxvhv.jpg?v=979f278ffd","LFM?L]%L+#%2.lK%Qn$kU^K%aeoz",2021,304,[337],{"id":338,"slug":339,"name":340},"01kwzx3e30gvdpttxvv2v3v03d","daniel-loedel-iqvv","Daniel Loedel",[342,343,344],{"id":189,"name":190,"slug":191,"is_fiction":19},{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},{"id":321,"name":322,"slug":323,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":104,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":347,"themes":348,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},[109,111],[349,350],"dual-timeline","forbidden-love",{"id":352,"slug":353,"title":354,"description":355,"primary_cover_url":356,"cover_blurhash":357,"first_publish_year":358,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":359,"authors":360,"genres":365,"series":368,"enrichment":369},"01kx23gxgqn75pvjyavaqw97sd","all-grown-up-atfs","All Grown Up","A national bestseller from the New York Times best-selling author of The Middlesteins, All Grown Up is a wickedly funny novel about a thirty-nine-year-old single, childfree woman who defies convention as she seeks connection.

Everyone around her seems to have an entirely different idea of what it means to be an adult: her best friend, Indigo, is getting married; her brother--who miraculously seems unscathed by their shared tumultuous childhood--and sister-in-law are having a hoped-for baby; and her friend Matthew continues to wholly devote himself to making dark paintings at the cost of being flat broke. But when Andrea's niece finally arrives, born with a heartbreaking ailment, the Bern family is forced to reexamine what really matters. Will this drive them together or tear them apart? Told in gut-wrenchingly honest, mordantly comic vignettes, All Grown Up is a breathtaking display of Jami Attenberg's power as a storyteller, a whip-smart examination of one woman's life, lived entirely on her own terms.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx23gxh3tdyhq0n7a66hq3vp.jpg?v=a14ecf8b03","LMJR8S00nN$^00ITx]R.~7xa-pNL",2017,224,[361],{"id":362,"slug":363,"name":364},"01kvrc6wt56j2he158zpmbft8g","jami-attenberg-oz4g","Jami Attenberg",[366,367],{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},{"id":296,"name":297,"slug":298,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":301,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":370,"themes":372,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},[371,139],"funny",[230,277],[374,474],{"key":375,"params":376,"works":377},"genre_mood",{"genre":43,"mood":109},[378,388,398,409,428,454],{"id":120,"slug":121,"title":122,"description":123,"primary_cover_url":124,"cover_blurhash":125,"first_publish_year":126,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":127,"authors":379,"genres":381,"series":384,"enrichment":385},[380],{"id":130,"slug":131,"name":132},[382,383],{"id":34,"name":35,"slug":36,"is_fiction":20},{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":104,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":386,"themes":387,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},[109,139,140],[],{"id":306,"slug":307,"title":308,"description":14,"primary_cover_url":309,"cover_blurhash":310,"first_publish_year":311,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":312,"authors":389,"genres":391,"series":394,"enrichment":395},[390],{"id":315,"slug":316,"name":317},[392,393],{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},{"id":321,"name":322,"slug":323,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":104,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":396,"themes":397,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},[109,139],[],{"id":329,"slug":330,"title":331,"description":14,"primary_cover_url":332,"cover_blurhash":333,"first_publish_year":334,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":335,"authors":399,"genres":401,"series":405,"enrichment":406},[400],{"id":338,"slug":339,"name":340},[402,403,404],{"id":189,"name":190,"slug":191,"is_fiction":19},{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},{"id":321,"name":322,"slug":323,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":104,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":407,"themes":408,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},[109,111],[349,350],{"id":410,"slug":411,"title":412,"description":413,"primary_cover_url":414,"cover_blurhash":415,"first_publish_year":311,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":312,"authors":416,"genres":421,"series":424,"enrichment":425},"01kx247mtp2m6zq8kx9c4jdsp9","probably-ruby-tbgt","Probably Ruby","An Indigenous woman adopted by white parents goes in search of her identity in this unforgettable debut novel about family, race, and history. Finalist for the Governor General's Literary Award • “Engaging . . . Ruby never disappoints with her big heart and outrageous sense of humor—and her resilient search for her own history.”—The New York Times Book Review “A passionate exploration of identity and belonging and a celebration of our universal desire to love and be loved.”—Imbolo Mbue, author of Behold the Dreamers This is the story of a woman in search of herself, in every sense. When we first meet Ruby, a Métis woman in her thirties, her life is spinning out of control. She’s angling to sleep with her counselor while also rekindling an old relationship she knows will only bring more heartache. But as we soon learn, Ruby’s story is far more complex than even she can imagine. Given up for adoption as an infant, Ruby is raised by a white couple who understand little of her Indigenous heritage. This is the great mystery that hovers over Ruby’s life—who her people are and how to reconcile what is missing. As the novel spans time and multiple points of view, we meet the people connected to Ruby: her birth parents and grandparents; her adoptive parents; the men and women Ruby has been romantically involved with; a beloved uncle; and Ruby’s children. Taken together, these characters form a kaleidoscope of stories, giving Ruby’s life dignity and meaning. Probably Ruby is a dazzling novel about a bold, unapologetic woman taking control of her life and story, and marks the debut of a major new voice in Indigenous fiction.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx247pmh1yd4f1q3wr0fajx7.jpg?v=2722a3c09e","LJLD_eV@R4xu%Mxuofof_N%MR+M{",[417],{"id":418,"slug":419,"name":420},"01kx247mv88rn3km013axzna1v","lisa-bird-wilson-iydl","Lisa Bird-Wilson",[422,423],{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},{"id":321,"name":322,"slug":323,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":301,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":426,"themes":427,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},[109,139,251],[230,277],{"id":429,"slug":430,"title":431,"description":432,"primary_cover_url":433,"cover_blurhash":434,"first_publish_year":435,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":436,"authors":437,"genres":442,"series":449,"enrichment":450},"01kx23msf94qk8qw838v24rdzb","the-majesties-wly8","The Majesties","In this “bold and dramatic portrayal of characters on the cusp of an impossible choice” (Publishers Weekly), two sisters from a wealthy Chinese-Indonesian family grapple with secrets and betrayal after one of them poisons their entire family.

But now Gwendolyn is lying in a coma, the sole survivor of Estella’s poisoning of their whole clan. As Gwendolyn struggles to regain consciousness, she desperately retraces her memories, trying to uncover the moment that led to this shocking act. Was it their aunt’s mysterious death at sea? Estella’s unhappy marriage to a dangerously brutish man? Or were the shifting loyalties and unspoken resentments at the heart of their opulent world too much to bear?

Vera grows up in a small town, removed and isolated, pressed up against the mountains, cloud-covered and damp year-round. This town, fiercely protective, brutal and unforgiving in its adherence to tradition, faces a singular affliction: some mothers vanish, disappearing into the clouds. It is the exquisite pain and intrinsic beauty of their lives; it sets them apart from people elsewhere and gives them meaning. Vera, a young girl when her mother went, is on the cusp of adulthood herself. As her peers begin to marry and become mothers, they speculate about who might be the first to go, each wondering about her own fate. Reveling in their gossip, they witness each other in motherhood, waiting for signs: this one devotes herself to her child too much, this one not enough—that must surely draw the affliction’s gaze. When motherhood comes for Vera, she is faced with the question: will she be able to stay and mother her beloved child, or will she disappear? Provocative and hypnotic, Alexis Schaitkin’s Elsewhere is at once a spellbinding revelation and a rumination on the mysterious task of motherhood and all the ways in which a woman can lose herself to it; the self-monitoring and judgment, the doubts and unknowns, and the legacy she leaves behind.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx24vfv4fkdmy5xbd22mm6vf.jpg?v=37029be765","L9P6dPEm1A?b+VRk$wNJD8R.-2xZ",217,[487],{"id":488,"slug":489,"name":490},"01kx24vftzx3qeb3t4b2t6ppym","alexis-schaitkin-islm","Alexis Schaitkin",[492,493],{"id":42,"name":43,"slug":44,"is_fiction":20},{"id":321,"name":322,"slug":323,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":104,"complexity":14,"audience":107,"mood":496,"themes":497,"setting_period":14,"summary":14,"content_warnings":14},[109,139],[],{"id":499,"slug":500,"title":501,"description":502,"primary_cover_url":503,"cover_blurhash":504,"first_publish_year":505,"community_rating_avg":506,"community_rating_count":151,"page_count":507,"authors":508,"genres":513,"series":519,"enrichment":525},"01kx2529frjqscv3xdamhbv3nd","well-prescribe-you-another-cat-mzfu","We'll Prescribe You Another Cat","The Kokoro Clinic for the Soul reopens in this delightful follow-up to the award-winning, bestselling Japanese novel We'll Prescribe You a Cat.

Now, in her long-awaited new novel, Lee explores with devastating poignancy the emotions, identities, and relationships of three very different American women living in the same small expat community in Hong Kong. Mercy, a young Korean American and recent Columbia graduate, is adrift, undone by a terrible incident in her recent past. Hilary, a wealthy housewife, is haunted by her struggle to have a child, something she believes could save her foundering marriage. Meanwhile, Margaret, once a happily married mother of three, questions her maternal identity in the wake of a shattering loss. As each woman struggles with her own demons, their lives collide in ways that have irreversible consequences for them all. Atmospheric, moving, and utterly compelling, The Expatriates confirms Lee as an exceptional talent and one of our keenest observers of women’s inner lives. From the Hardcover edition.
