Most writers are happy to achieve success in a single format, but such a career would bore gifted polymath Vikram Seth. The Indian-born author has already delighted readers with poetry, translations of Chinese verse, a book of travels through Tibet, a libretto and the monumental novel
A Suitable Boy. This fall, Seth releases his latest foray into a new genre: a memoir titled
Two Lives, which tells the true story of how his Indian granduncle Shanti fell in love with and married a Jewish-German woman after World War II. The book will weave together history, race and love, mixing poignant family biography with personal memoir, all with the author's inimitable style. Expect Seth to master yet another method.
