From award-winning writer Anjali Joseph, a compelling new novel about a dysfunctional love affair. Meet Ved, a British investor heading back to his Indian roots with a business proposition- a lightbulb called the Everlasting Lucifer. Meet Keteki, an art curator with a nomadic lifestyle, on her way home to Assam. In Heathrow airport, on the way to Mumbai, their paths cross, sparking an affair that soon turns into an intricate power game - and a complicated journey towards intimacy. 'Keeping in Touch is an unsettling slow burn of a novel, as quiet and funny as it is a searing and precise portrait of the human condition. Anjali's writing is calm and restrained but the novel builds such intensity through her powerful observation. A real beauty.' -Evie Wyld, author of All The Birds, Singing 'It is at its best in scene-setting or when conjuring up the exquisiteness of India, whether the unkempt, lush splendour of Assam ... or simply a wet day in Delhi.' -Lucy Scholes, TLS 'The hesitation and wary texting, the one step forward and two steps back ? this is a modern love story that also becomes a love story about Assam. I read this book in a single sitting.' -Jeet Thayil, author of Narcopolis
