S. Naipaul. The \u003ci\u003eWashington Post\u003c\/i\u003e hailed it as \"astounding . . . Davies has left a unique, definitive footprint in the soil of contemporary short fiction.\" In his new collection, Davies's unforgettable characters—a Chinese son gambling with professional mourners, a mixed-race couple who experience a close encounter—strive for a love that transcends time, race, and sexuality. These are the stories of a sandwich generation—children of one century, adults of the next—caught between debts to their parents and what they owe their own offspring. Shot through with humor and grace, \u003ci\u003eEqual Love\u003c\/i\u003e confirms Davies's reputation as one of his generation's foremost writers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Houghton Mifflin Harcourt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47009601716464,"sku":"9780618006991","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780618006991_p0.jpg?v=1763600100","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780618006991","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
