Radio Bookclub: Akhil Sharma and “A Life of Adventure and Delight”

The September selection for the Bookclub is A Life of Adventure and Delight by Akhil Sharma.

Sharma is an important voice in American fiction and the author of “An Obedient Father” and “Family Life”, which movingly document both Indians in India and the Indian-American immigrant experience. His latest book, “A Life of Adventure and Delight”, plunges the reader into the unpredictable workings of the human heart.”

He spoke with Arsen Kashkashian and Maeve Conran at the  2017 ZEE Jaipur Literature Festival on September 16th at the Boulder Public Library.
