Roy, Anuradha: All the Lives We Never Lived (Paperback)

Freedom of a different kind is in the air across India. The fight against British rule is reaching a critical turn. The Nazis have come to power in Germany. At this point of crisis, two strangers arrive in Gayatri's town, opening up for her the vision of other possible lives. An artist's escape from a stultifying marriage is set against India's fight for independence and a world war. A powerful parable for our times.>/b>
