Fourteen-year-old Alma is soon to be married despite her parents' fear that she is far too young. Given the uncertain times, Alma's parents, intellectuals who teach at the local university, pray that marriage will provide Alma with stability and safety. Alma is precocious and headstrong, and her excitement over the wedding rivals only her joy in spinning wild stories about evil spirits for her younger sister Roop. But when Alma's grandmother interferes with the engagement, it sets off a chain of events that will wrench the family apart, forcing its members to find new and increasingly desperate ways to survive in the wake of partition. 650 0 $a College teachers $z India $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $z India $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $z India $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Arranged marriage $z India $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Delhi (India) $x History $y 20th century $v Fiction. 651 0 $a India $x History $y Partition, 1947 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 700 1 $a Nankani, Soneela, $e narrator. 941 $a 1 945 $a cdab 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010024933.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F9EBCB24673211EEBF3E118F48ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b UIBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
