The book is in bright red cloth and in near fine condition with a touch of soil on the outer page edge. The colorful dustjacket is complete and shows only very light toning due to age.

This edition is signed by the author Ali Sethi. Pristine. Ali Sethi has mentioned that the title of the novel, "wish maker," is a word taken from the epigraph from the classic "Middlemarch." In a Newsline Magazine interview, Sethi states: "The epigraph refers to a consciousness that is made up of other people's wishes. That gradually became the main theme: the relationship between yourself and others, the first and the third person." The novel was met with acclaim from Vogue, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Independent. Critics have compared Sethi to Jonathan Safran Foer, Zadie Smith and Khaled Hosseini. Sethi has mentioned being highly influenced by Tolstoy, Arundhati Roy, Virginia Woolf and V.S. Naipaul. "The Wish Maker" was long-listed for the 2011 DSC Prize for South Asian Literature and…
