Mr. Sahota... has an instinctive sense of storytelling, immersing us in the dilemmas of his characters... Writing with unsentimental candor, Mr. Sahota has created a cast of characters whose lives are so richly imagined that this deeply affecting novel calls out for a sequel or follow-up that might recount the next installment of their lives." -- Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times " The Grapes of Wrath for the 21st Century... America''s fresh spasm of xenophobia makes this devastating story about the plight of immigrants all the more relevant now . . . Relentless . . . Absorbing . . . The great marvel of this book is its absolute refusal to grasp at anything larger than the hopes and humiliations of these few marginal people . . . The story''s momentum feels absolutely overwhelming . . . Read this novel." --Ron Charles, The Washington Post "Mr. Sahota''s masterly immigrant saga . . . powerfully reminds us of just what immigrants seek in the West . . . Absorbing, highly textured . . . The Year of the Runaways is a poignant exploration of the fate of friendship and goodness in a frontier world . . . Superb." --Sam Sacks, The Wall Street Journal "Immersive... Sahota is a clear-eyed, unflinching storyteller, switching seamlessly between the characters'' desperate present circumstances and the crises at home that lead to their migration. The book is a major achievement, a compassionate tale about the cruelties of twenty-first century immigrant life." -- The New Yorker "A unique reading experience...get lost in this sprawling, stunning novel." --Malcolm Forbes, Minneapolis Star Tribune "[Sahota''s] powerful recent novel, The Year of the Runaways is a striking exception to the kind of bourgeois cosmopolitanism with which the literature (and academic literary criticism) of the professional South-Asian diaspora is identified" -- Los Angeles Review of Books "An intensely immersive story that, through its forthrightness, shines light on the harsh realities of undocumented immigration...Ambitious in everything it tackles... The novel prevails not only in the power of its myriad messages but also in the experience of reading it." -- The Harvard Crimson Praise from the U.K. for The Year of the Runaways: "All you can do is surrender, happily, to its power." --Salman Rushdie "A brilliant political novel, deeply felt, told in the most intimate of ways...Sahota knows how to turn a phrase, how to light up a scene, how to make you stay up late to learn what happens next. This is a novel that takes on the largest questions and still shines in its smallest details...a brilliant and beautiful novel." --Kamila Shamsie, The Guardian "A novel of great moral intelligence...deeply impressive." --Claire Lowdon, The Sunday Times "Sahota proves a wonderfully evocative storyteller...fascinating...the real thing." --Mihir Bose, The Independent "Should be compulsory reading. A magnificent achievement." --John Harding, Daily Mail "The best novel of the year....judges of forthcoming literary prizes need look no further." --Cressida Connolly, The Spectator "A rich, intricate, beautifully written novel, bursting and seething with energy" --Kate Saunders, The Times "Nothing short of an asteroid impact would have made me put the book down" -- Irish Times "Timely and humane." -- The Guardian: Literary Fiction of the Year 2015 "A quietly devastating examination of immigrant lives." -- The Observer: Best novels of 2015 " I defy anyone to read it and retain any simplistic opinions about "economic migration." -- The Independent: Literary Fiction of the Year 2015 From the Hardcover edition.

Synopsis
In the north of England, a group of young Indian immigrants struggle to begin something new--to support their families; to build their futures; to show their worth; to escape their pasts. An epic for our times, The Year of the Runaways is a stunning work of fiction that explores what it means and what it costs to make a new life, the capaciousness of the human spirit, and the power of humanity in the face of unspeakable suffering.
