“Papa nak jodohkan aku dengan anak kawan dia? Aku baru putus cinta dengan Aiman. Aku tak nak di kecewakan lagi. Baik aku menyamar jadi gemuk masa jumpa lelaki tu. Lepas tu mekap tebal-tebal dan pakai cermin mata. Bila dia nampak aku buruk, mesti dia tak jadi nak kahwin dengan aku.” Syazana memasang tekad. “Demi menyelamatkan syarikat papa, aku terpaksa berkorban untuk dijodohkan dengan perempuan yang aku tak kenal. Aku redha walau aku masih teringatkan Qistina. Tapi aku nak perempuan tu terima aku seadanya. Bukan sebab aku handsome. Apa kata aku pakai gigi palsu besar, berperut buncit, berjambang dan botak tengah kepala.” Rafi qi merancang. Kalau sudah jodoh, akhirnya kahwin juga.

In this potent examination of family and memory, Jon McGregor charts one man's voyage of self-discovery. Like Kazuo Ishiguro's The Remains of the Day, So Many Ways to Begin is rich in the intimate details that shape a life, the subtle strain that defines human relationships, and the personal history that forms identity. David Carter, the novel's protagonist, takes a keen interest in history as a boy. Encouraged by his doting Aunt Julia, he begins collecting the things that tell his story: a birth certificate, school report cards, annotated cinema and train tickets. After finishing school, he finds the perfect job for his lifetime obsession-curator at a local history museum. His professional and romantic lives take shape as his beloved aunt and mentor's unravels. Lost in a fog of senility, Julia lets slip that David had been adopted. Over the course of the next decades, as David and his wife Eleanor live out their lives-struggling through early marriage, professional disappointments, the birth of their daughter, Eleanor's depression, and an affair that ends badly- David attempts to physically piece together his past, finding meaning and connection where he least expects it.
