Leaving Everything Most Loved
by Jacqueline Winspear
This book has a terribly Orientalist relationship to the victim that it is meant to care for. The Indian woman at the center is the victim and is entirely a plot device to forward the story of Maisie. Usha, the victim, is framed in classic Orientalist tropes of a healer, a girl more moved by passion than logic with her destiny locked to the will of the men — especially the white men — in her life.
