What does it mean to lose someone?
Bestselling author Siddharth Dhanvant Shanghvi draws on a string of devastating personal losses—of his mother, of his father and of his beloved dog Bruschetta—to answer this timeless question in his first non-fiction book, Loss. Shanghvi’s first novel, The Last Song of Dusk, won the Betty Trask Award, the Premio Grinzane Cavour, and was nominated for the IMPAC Prize. His second book, The Lost Flamingoes of Bombay, was shortlisted for the Man Asian Prize. His most recent book is The Rabbit & the Squirrel (with illustrations by Stina Wirsen). He lives in north Goa.

THE FIRST THING YOU NOTICE in Naples is Diego Maradona. His face appears as graffiti on the walls under bridges, as murals covering the side of buildings, painted on café chairs, imprinted on bedroom sheets, and even marketed on energy drinks.
