The Spoiled Heart by Sunjeev Sahota
4.0
Thank you to @vintagebooks and @penguinrandomhouse for the eARC.
This is my first book by Sunjeev Sahota and I can clearly see why he is two-time Booker Prize nominee!
After his son and mother were killed in a terrible fire twenty years earlier and the subsequent break up of his marriage following this. Nayan Olak has put his heart and soul into his work and is about to run for General Secretary of a Union he is extremely passionate about, in the hope he can help to make a fairer world for all.
Helen Fletcher has moved back to the village with her son Brandon and Nayan is drawn to her mysterious nature.
It’s a tragic story of family, love, loss, secrets, community, fear and politics.
I would definitely recommend and I will be reading more from this author.
