Description
Set against the changing landscape of rural India, this evocative novel follows a community confronting the forces that threaten to erase its home and reshape its future. As personal loyalties, family histories, and hopes for a better life collide, the villagers must reckon with what it means to belong to a place—and what it costs to leave it behind. Exploring displacement, memory, environmental change, and the resilience of ordinary people, the book offers a moving portrait of a community caught between tradition and progress. Sena Desai Gopal writes with emotional insight and a strong sense of place, bringing intimate human stories to a deeply relevant social conflict.
