Really enjoyed this ! Interesting read for sure, love a dual narrative and a multigenerational story! Just so sad and I struggling with the wrap up of the ending, it didn’t feel quite complete !

A very interesting exploration of multigenerational family relations and it was interesting to learn about the history of India and its societal norms and how it functioned.
