The Covenant of Water

“Such a beautiful, vivid description of place and culture, paired with the heartbreaking story of a family. I was so utterly absorbed I gasped and cried several times over. One of the best books I’ve ever read.”

“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!”

“Amazing though long. Really captures the culture and the characters seem real”

“Listening to the author tell this story I had read long ago is a treat. The language, his descriptions, his characters are so rich”

“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.”
