Description

Longlisted for the Man Booker Prize 2003. This provocative and adventurous novel explores the havoc wrought when a young Kosovan-an illegal immigrant-finds himself in London. Mehmet leads a double life of befriending and lodging with an elderly woman who suffers from multiple sclerosis, while at the same time having an affair with a woman doctor and throwing himself into the London gay scene. Disaster looms when Mehmet begins a new relationship and is quickly arrested because of his illegal status. - from Amzon
