Product Description
Why does Debbie Barton- a struggling young woman in Toronto-give her original Bengali name to a countrywoman who lies sprawled in front of her on the cold pavement?... A young Asian widow in East Africa is tormented into remarrying and giving up her child... To her family in India, Vijaya, a physical therapist in America, is an all-out success. But Vijaya, who's used to picking up useless items from shops without paying, knows otherwise... A young teacher, having returned her mother's ashes home to the Ganges, now contemplates her lonely future in the country to which her parents brought her... Precisely crafted and sensitively told, each of these twenty stories, offers us a wonderful glimpe into the complex and manifold world of South Asian women in North America.
