Happy Birthday, Kiran Desai! May your day be as spirited and delightful as the hullabaloo you once orchestrated in that legendary guava orchard. Indeed, very few can make fruit trees famous and inheritance so wonderfully complicated all at once—but you've certainly mastered both!From winning hearts (plus a Man Booker Prize!) with "The Inheritance of Loss," to earning acclaim such as the prestigious Berlin Prize Fellowship—your literary journey has been remarkable. Here's hoping this birthday brings joys surpassing even those illustrious triumphs: endless laughter, abundant inspiration, and perhaps just enough delightful chaos to spark another extraordinary novel. Cheers!
