Description
Two women bound by an extraordinary sisterly connection are reunited when a single mother leaves Calcutta to join her lifelong friend and her husband in California. As the three navigate unfamiliar freedoms, cultural displacement, motherhood, and the expectations carried from home, an unspoken attraction threatens to unsettle their carefully guarded bonds. Moving between India and America, this emotionally rich novel explores loyalty, desire, identity, and the complicated ways love can both sustain and divide us. With her signature insight into women’s lives and relationships, the author offers a powerful story of friendship tested by change and longing.
