Synopsis "Notes on a Marriage"

In his younger days, Alfred Hughes had been quite the Nineties revolutionary athis university in England, clad in faded army fatigues and smoking Cuban cigars.They called him Ché Freddo. His comrades-in-arms were Nido-Nitin-sonof divorced Indian immigrants, and Eugenia-ardent admirer of Sylvia Plath, who believed that one had to sacrifice everything for a cause, be fearless indeath. Into this mix came Anju Kale, of British-Asian heritage, the only child of adisheartened Indian Marxist father and a submissive, but wealthy, English mother, and her entry into this tightly-knit group caused all equations to shift and change.As time goes by, Freddo gives up revolution for the security of a collegeprofessorship, Nido for a job at Goldman Sachs. Anju marries Freddo and triesto come to terms with his serial philandering, in a marriage precariously heldtogether by middle-class sensibilities. And the devastating secret about whathappened to Eugenia.Until Anju too finds herself caught in an extra-marital relationship. Trappedbetween the need for fulfilment and a love of stability, Anju must redefine what itmeans to be a family.In prose that is lyrical and beguiling, Selma Carvalho weaves a story about amarriage that is tender, startling and wise in turn.This masterful work from the author of the remarkable fiction debut, Sisterhood ofSwans, confirms Carvalho's place in the literary firmament.
