The protagonists are four generations of the da Gama, who became wealthy in the spice trade before declining into gangsterism. Their tale is narrated by the family's last descendant and he attributes their fall to bickering, a reflection of Hindu-Moslem strife plaguing India today. Peopled with odd characters--the narrator is the product of a Jewish father and a Christian mother--the novel is a pessimistic counterpoint to the author's optimistic Midnight's Children, on India's struggle for independence. 001388097 586__ $$aWhitbread Award, 1995. 001388097 650_0 $$aMothers and sons$$vFiction. 001388097 650_0 $$aSpice trade$$vFiction. 001388097 650_0 $$aDomestic fiction. 001388097 650_1 $$aMothers and sons$$vFiction. 001388097 650_7 $$aDomestic fiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00896624 001388097 650_7 $$aMothers and sons.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01027007 001388097 650_7 $$aSpice trade.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01129719 001388097 651_0 $$aIndia$$vFiction. 001388097 651_7 $$aIndia.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01210276 001388097 655_0 $$aDomestic fiction. 001388097 655_7 $$aDomestic fiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01726589 001388097 655_7 $$aFiction.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423787 001388097 655_7 $$aDomestic fiction.$$2lcgft 001388097 852__ $$bgen$$hPR6068.U757$$iM66 1995 001388097 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1388097$$pGLOBAL_SET 001388097 980__ $$aBOOK 001388097 980__ $$aBIB
