$The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny | Kiran Desai in conversation with Kimberly A.C. Wilson Booker Prize-winning author Kiran Desais latest book, The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny, weaves a powerful story of modern love, fractured families, and generational longing.

In conversation with Kimberly A.C. Wilson, Executive Director, Hedgebrook, she discusses the means by which such intersections are manifested across her work. Kiran Desai is the award winning author of three novels, The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny, The Inheritance of Loss (winner of the Booker Prize), and Hullabaloo in the Guava Orchard. The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny, her latest work, has been long-listed for the 2025 Booker Prize.
