This debut novel follows three generations of Muslim Indians as they attempt to reconnect after years of separation, it’s told by the newest member of the family starting from the time of his birth using flashbacks and present day storytelling.
It’s poetic, and bold and I absolutely loved it. Somehow all the characters exhibited a stubbornness that completely infuriated me, yet I was in awe of their ability to hold on to the their beliefs in the midst of constant judgement and criticism.
For all my literary fiction lovers out there, this one is for you! It comes out August 3rd! It’s a MUST READ! GO
