The Road Between Us

Bindu Suresh

#8053 of 8,085 books · #3140 in Fiction

Longlisted for the Giller Prize (2025).

Estela struggles in her relationships and in her professional life due to the loss of her brother at a young age. Ash, Estela's estranged best friend, loves Estela unrequitedly and must come to terms with being bisexual in the context of his traditional Indian immigrant family. Ophélie works through PTSD and the emotionally abusive romantic relationship she was in as a teen. Roman is an academic whose pain post-divorce leads him to seek out younger women--his students--in the #MeToo era. Travelling from Montreal to Ottawa to Toronto - and as far as New York, Beijing, and Buenos Aires - and spanning the first two decades of the twenty-first century, The Road Between Us is an episodic novel that explores why we make the decisions we do and the effects those decisions have on those we love.
