Reviews
"The superb fiction debut of Amit Majmudar, "Partitions", is particularly welcome... This novel will make you angry and sad, as it should; it will also leave you with a heightened sense of sympathy and hope for the people on both sides of an arbitrary border."--"The Wall Street Journal" "Unforgettable."
--"The Boston Globe" "Heart-wrenching."--"New York Post"
"Shimmering prose... and a poignant surprise ending."--"The Seattle Times" "A dazzling narrative... Amit Majmudar's exceptional debut brilliantly captures India at its most turbulent."--"Daily Mail" (UK) "A greatly human dramatization of the persecution each religious group experienced at the hands of the others... Poignant but never maudlin."--"Booklist" (starred review) "Magnificent... Written with piercing beauty, alive with moral passion and sorrowful insight--a rueful masterpiece."--"Kirkus" (starred review)
