Remy Wadia left India for the United States long ago, carrying his resentment of his mother with him. He has now returned to Bombay to adopt a baby from a young pregnant girl--and to see his elderly mother for the first time in several years. Discovering that his mother is in the hospital, has stopped talking, and seems to have given up on life, he is struck with guilt for not realizing just how sick she has become. His unexpected appearance and assiduous attention revives her and enables her to return to her home. But when Remy stumbles on an old photograph, shocking long-held family secrets surface. As the secrets unravel and Remys mother begins communicating again, he finds himself reevaluating his entire childhood, his relationship to his parents, and his harsh judgment of the decisions and events long hidden from him, just as he is on the cusp of becoming a parent himself. But most of all, he must learn to forgive others for their failures and human frailties. Readers of Sankofa by Chibundu Onuzo, Fault Lines by Emily Itami, and Dava Shastris Last Day by Kirthana Ramisetti will devour this story of secrets and family, a reminder that forgiveness comes from realizing that the people we love are usually trying to do their best in the most difficult situations. 521 $a Adult. 650 0 $a Homecoming $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers and sons $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Adoption $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Mumbai (India) $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Audiobooks. $2 lcgft 710 2 $a Playaway Digital Audio, $e issuing body. 710 2 $a Playaway Products, LLC, $e issuing body. 941 $a 1 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20240214011231.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D2391B80CB0611EEBD4A43E53CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
