Starting in Nagasaki just before the Bomb, this book takes us through British India at the time of the partition, then Turkey, Pakistan and Afghanistan, before ending in a post-9/11 New York. Epic in scope and beautifully written, the characters will stay with you for a long time.

Burnt Shadows by Kamila Shamsie, £7.19, amazon.co.uk
