The Laughter

'Sonora Jha expertly inhabits the perspective of a man so terrified of the old world slipping away, he can't see the ground shifting beneath his feet. A deliciously sharp, mercilessly perceptive exploration of power, The Laughter explores how 'otherness' is both fetishized and demonized, and what it means to love something a person, a country that does not love you back.' Celeste Ng, New York Times-bestselling author of Little Fires Everywhere and Our Missing Hearts
