China Room by Sunjeev Sahota

3.0

This book follows a young bride, Mehar, in 1920's India who is learning how to navigate her arranged marriage. Mehar goes on to explore her independence and her own desires. It was a really interesting perspective into a life far removed from my own. I really liked how the author explored love and intimacy in this book and juxtaposed it with current day where the same, yet slightly different, issues still persist.
