Taken From Him (Kindle Single)

von Joseph McElroy

Über

An American professional on a visit to India meets a young Mumbai woman who seems to have existing knowledge of him. After their startling first encounter, he begins to feel her presence everywhere he goes. Convinced she has taken from him something he can’t quite identify, he soon discovers the young woman has troubles of her own. From an old fort-turned-slum dwelling to a forest that borders the city -- problems of this teeming, complex place become a man’s own secret risks. A new work from a legendary writer whom The Daily Beast called “one of America’s most audacious and intelligent novelists.”

Joseph McElroy is the author of nine novels including Women and Men, Plus, A Smuggler’s Bible, Ancient History: A Paraphase, and most recently Cannonball. Also Night Soul and Other Stories, the novella Preparations for Search, a volume of essays, and, forthcoming, a nonfiction book about water. In addition to Guggenheim, D.H. Lawrence, and National Endowment fellowships, McElroy received the Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters.
