A writer, torn between two loves, looks for his lost words in the gaps between memory, mourning and desire in the title story; in 'The Lost Cantos of the Silken Tiger' a poet revenges herself on her faithless lover by turning their romance into a legend of biblical proportions; and a teenage boy's life uncannily begins to resemble the role he plays in a school operetta in 'The Blue Direction'. Combining satire, legend, poetry, history and memoir, the linked stories of \u003ci\u003eThis Other Salt\u003c\/i\u003e reveal an author of uncommon talent at the height of his craft.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Saqi Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45087942475927,"sku":"9780863565328","price":680.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780863565328.webp?v=1767641111","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/this-other-salt-9780863565328","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
