520    FOR FANS OF ALL THE LIGHT WE CANNOT SEE, A LUSH, SWEEPING 
       LOVE STORY ABOUT A HINDU PERFUMER AND A MUSLIM 
       CALLIGRAPHER, SET AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF PARTITION 
       "Narrator Deepti Gupta captures the deep emotional 
       connection between the two young people, making listeners 
       feel hopeful that, in some way, Samir and Firdaus will 
       find a way to be together. As listeners follow the pair 
       through the decades and see the long-term effects of the 
       partition, Gupta's performance complements this sweeping 
       story, dazzling with every new chapter and plot twist." - 
       AudioFile Magazine (Earphones Award Winner) "The excellent
       audio production uses Indian music to open and close the 
       epic, and narrator Deepti Gupta speaks with a lovely 
       Indian accent that listeners will acclimate to easily." - 
       Library Journal  On a January morning in 1938, Samir Vij 
       first locks eyes with Firdaus Khan through the rows of 
       perfume bottles in his family's ittar shop in Lahore. Over
       the years that follow, the perfumer's apprentice and 
       calligrapher's apprentice fall in love with their ancient 
       crafts and with each other, dreaming of the life they will
       one day share. But as the struggle for Indian independence
       gathers force, their beloved city is ravaged by Partition.
       Suddenly, they find themselves on opposite sides: Samir, a
       Hindu, becomes Indian and Firdaus, a Muslim, becomes 
       Pakistani, their love now forbidden. Severed from one 
       another, Samir and Firdaus make a series of fateful 
       decisions that will change the course of their lives 
       forever. As their paths spiral away from each other, they 
       must each decide how much of the past they are willing to 
       let go, and what it will cost them.  Lush, sensuous, and 
       deeply romantic, The Book of Everlasting Things is the 
       story of two lovers and two nations, split apart by forces
       beyond their control, yet bound by love and memory. Filled
       with exquisite descriptions of perfume and calligraphy, 
       spanning continents and generations, Aanchal Malhotra's 
       debut novel is a feast for the senses and the heart. A 
       Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books. Aanchal 
       Malhotra is a writer and oral historian from New Delhi, 
       India. A co-founder of the Museum of Material Memory, 
       Malhotra has written nonfiction books on the human history
       and generational impact of the 1947 Partition, titled 
       Remnants of Partition and In the Language of Remembering. 
       The Book of Everlasting Things is her debut novel.  
       "Mesmerizing…At the heart of Malhotra's sweeping debut 
       novel is an indelible love story…A transcendent study of 
       the blurring of personal and political, as ordinary people
       deal with catastrophic historical events." -Publishers 
       Weekly (starred review)    "A long and luxurious tale of 
       love, loss, memory, and place, told against a backdrop of 
       tumultuous historical events…It will be difficult indeed 
       to forget this exquisite story." -Library Journal (starred
       review)  "A majestic, evocative exploration of the 
       persistence of memory and the human connections that 
       transcend even death." -Booklist (starred review) "At once
       sweeping and intimate. With gorgeous prose and careful 
       research, Malhotra brings to life a world rich with Indian
       perfumery, Urdu calligraphy, and a romance that defies 
       time and space. A stunning book that reminds you of what 
       it is to fall in love." -Jenny Tinghui Zhang, author of 
       Four Treasures of the Sky  "Spanning generations and 
       continents, Malhotra's debut is both thought-provoking and
       deliciously romantic. The Book of Everlasting Things will 
       awaken your senses and leave you captivated until the last
       page."  -Lara Prescott, New York Times bestselling author 
       of The Secrets We Kept  "Magical, illuminating, and 
       thought-provoking! There is true love, longing, loss, and 
       healing inside The Book of Everlasting Things. Malhotra 
       writes with the power of a novelist who is the master of 
       her craft."  -Nguyen Phan Que Mai, internationally 
       bestselling author of The Mountains Si
