Set in a village in southern India shortly after India gained independence, Nectar in a Sieve portrays, through the lives of its characters -Rukmani, Nathan and their children - the hopes and aspirations of a young nation recently embarked on the path of development, surmounting many obstacles along the way. Few novels ever published have celebrated the human spirit, its sheer resilience, with greater success.
