Three more break-through novels
Three more break-through novels. Selected by The New Yorker as one of the twenty best American novelists under forty, the South Korean-born Leeâs third novel A loft is the portrait of Jerry Battle. Whitbread-shortlisted Sutherlandâs Venus as a Boy is the story of a boyâs mythical journey from a bullied and heartbroken childhood in Orkney and the sort of sex that makes people see angels, to a man in a room in Soho whose flesh is turning to gold. Aslamâs Maps for Lost Lovers is set in a northern English town where two Pakistani boys Jugnu and Chanda, disappear. Chandaâs brothers are arrested for murder.
