    “I really gravitate towards books that talk about multigenerational family trauma with cultural backgrounds. This book is definitely that.”

    “A beautiful generational story set in southern India. His other book, Cutting for Stone, is also amazing!”

    “This book was...a journey. I had to stop halfway through, and read a palate cleanser, but that only helped me love it more. I was so sad when this one ended and couldn't read another book for a couple of weeks because I needed to continue mulling over this one. READ IT.”
