International Bestseller

by Anosh Irani
The Song of Kahunsha is Vancouver writer Anosh Irani’s second novel, following his critically successful debut, The Cripple and His Talismans, published in Canada (by Raincoast Books) and the U.S. in 2004. Irani moved to Vancouver from Bombay in 1998 and wrote that first novel as his thesis in UBC’s MFA Creative Writing program. He is also a playwright—his first play, The Matka King, debuted at the Arts Club Theatre in 2003, and his second play, Bombay Black, was produced by Toronto’s Cahoots Theatre in January.
