Synopsis Another Man's Wife by : Manjul Bajaj

Nine finely nuanced stories that explore the themes of desire, intimacy and love... A contractor at a dam site develops so obsessive a desire for a tribal woman that he brings home and holds captive another man’s wife; a kathak dancer trapped in a marriage of convenience with an older man talks scathingly of fidelity; an accidental step into an occupied bathroom changes a young Delhi servant boy’s life forever; a young married couple beleaguered by infertility desperately tries to reignite the romance and passion of their honeymoon on a houseboat in Kashmir. Set across India, each of the stories in this collection unerringly locates the defiant undercurrent of individual expression in a world shackled by societal norms.

Synopsis What's Left of Me Is Yours by : Stephanie Scott

"Each chapter of this enrapturing novel is elegantly brief and charged with barely contained emotion." --New York Times Book Review A gripping debut set in modern-day Tokyo and inspired by a true crime, for readers of Everything I Never Told You and The Perfect Nanny, What's Left of Me Is Yours charts a young woman's search for the truth about her mother's life--and her murder. In Japan, a covert industry has grown up around the "wakaresaseya" (literally "breaker-upper"), a person hired by one spouse to seduce the other in order to gain the advantage in divorce proceedings. When Satō hires Kaitarō, a wakaresaseya agent, to have an affair with his wife, Rina, he assumes it will be an easy case. But Satō has never truly understood Rina or her desires and Kaitarō's job is to do exactly that--until he does it too well. While Rina remains ignorant of the circumstances that brought them together, she and Kaitarō fall in a desperate, singular love, setting in motion a series of violent acts that will forever haunt her daughter's life. Told from alternating points of view and across the breathtaking landscapes of Japan, Stephanie Scott exquisitely renders the affair and its intricate repercussions. As Rina's daughter, Sumiko, fills in the gaps of her mother's story and her own memory, Scott probes the thorny psychological and moral grounds of the actions we take in the name of love, asking where we draw the line between passion and possession.
