Reseña del libro "Kalpavriksha (en Inglés)"

"The true challenge ... is to recognize that it is a very ambitious--indeed, innovative piece of writing."They claim him as kin. They say he owes them. But when Ram's past collides with his present on a night rife with oppression, he is forced to choose between what must go and what can stay in a heart full of divided loyalties.Against the backdrop of a police crackdown on Dalits and a riot raging just outside the wedding hall where Ram's nephew is celebrating his marriage, the city burns. Into the pomp-and-circumstance of the wedding another reality intrudes: Ram must act quickly on behalf of one of his students, whose father has just died at the hands of racist hospital workers. When the son is arrested for lashing out at an official, Ram, teaming up with his once-estranged sister Nela, rescues the boy. In the space of a single night, he comes to grips with the nature of kinship--who we count as family and what we really owe them--as brother and sister help avenge the student's father's death. When they unexpectedly discover a legacy meant to change the son's life, it is clear it will change Ram's too, as he stands at the intersection of duty and individuation, once again trying to find his way home.
