In this novel, three women's lives touch, sometimes directly, sometimes tangentially. Ruth is unable to distinguish between her elaborate dreams and reality; Rani is caught up in her own fantasy; and Reshma only dares to hope that her reality has some profound meaning.

** 'What a find Ahmad is. She writers about women's 'legacy of grief' without self-pity, and if there is anger, it surfaces as wit.' MAIL ON SUNDAYMore details
