We have to have danced while we could and, later, to have danced again in the telling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTunde, the man at the centre of this novel, reflects on the places and times of his life, from his West African upbringing to his current work as a teacher of photography on a renowned New England campus. He is a reader, a listener, and a traveller drawn to many different kinds of stories: from history and the epic; of friends, family, and strangers; those found in books and films. One man's personal lens refracts entire worlds, and back again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA weekend spent shopping for antiques is shadowed by the colonial atrocities that occurred on that land. A walk at dusk is interrupted by casual racism. A loving marriage is riven by mysterious tensions. And a remarkable cascade of voices speak out from a pulsing metropolis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTremor \u003c\/em\u003eis a startling work of realism and invention that examines the passage of time and how we mark it. It is a reckoning with human survival amidst \"history's own brutality, which refuses symmetries and seldom consoles\" - but it is also a testament to the possibility of joy. This is narration with all its senses alert, a surprising and deeply essential work from a beacon of contemporary literature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teju Cole","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45170824708143,"sku":"9780571377909","price":1399.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/6428\/9071\/files\/9780571377909.jpg?v=1775224794","url":"https:\/\/lunabooks.in\/products\/tremor","provider":"Luna Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
