Though separated by geography and by radically different lifestyles, Tara and her sisters—the "desirable daughters" of the book's title—remain close, and when danger befalls Tara, it is her sisters and her ex-husband to whom she turns for comfort and renewal and for help in resolving the mystery that threatens to destroy her and her family.
"Evocative, richly layered " —Elle
"Bharati Mukherjee has such a gift for language she could rephrase the phone book to mesmerizing effect." —San Francisco Chronicle
"Mukherjee has always been considered a significant writer. Here she bursts out as a star." —Publishers Weekly Vissza
