He embarks on a radical experiment in his own life and the lives of those connected to him: his practical economist husband; their twins; and even the authors he edits and publishes. One of those authors, a mysterious M. N. Opie, writes a story about a young academic involved in a car accident that causes her life to veer in an unexpected direction. Another author, an economist, describes how the gift of a cow to an impoverished family on the West Bengal–Bangladesh border sets them on a startling path to tragedy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTogether, these connected narratives raise the question: How free are we really to make our own choices? In a scathing, compassionate quarrel with the world, Neel Mukherjee confronts our fundamental assumptions about economics, race, appropriation, and the tangled ethics of contemporary life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Neel Mukherjee","offers":[{"title":"WW Norton |  Hardback  |  2024-04-02","offer_id":44663195140351,"sku":"9781324075011","price":38.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/files\/BNCImageAPI_359f7d38-eb14-4f3c-8ac7-04427d631295.jpg?v=1704534093","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9781324075011","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
