Expect the unexpected

Remember the russian doll – or dolls, each cracking open to reveal another doll embedded within? That’s this book – 4 generations of daughters intertwined in raw emotions. Unfazed, zesty, lusty and fiercely individual women who dare to err and admit it.

I had to read the cover inscription twice. I thought it said, ‘I hope you forgive me’. But on closer inspection it says quite the opposite- so the cover is a perfect harbinger of what lies inside.

Meera hates her mom, to the extent of shunning her even in death. A gift left behind unravels letter from her Mom and Grandmom which pique her interest as she relives their lives in the older India, lives their choices, their mistakes, their loves, their bitter quibbles, their drastic steps – until life comes a full circle and lands her at grandma’s doorstep.
