«La fondalada» (The lowland) is the contemporary novel by Jhumpa Lahiri, published by Amsterdam in paperback (384 pages, in Catalan).
Subhash and Udayan grow up inseparable in Calcutta in the 1960s, near the lowland that gives the novel its title. Adulthood separates them: Subhash emigrates to the United States and Udayan becomes involved in politics in India. A family tragedy will make him return to Calcutta and reconsider whether love can survive death.
Work originally published in English as The Lowland; Catalan translation by Iñaki Tofiño Quesada and David Cañadas Bustos. Finalist for the National Book Award and nominated for the Man Booker Prize.
Suitable reading for book clubs and for those seeking contemporary literary fiction about India, emigration and family ties.
