Mala and Ronak are adults now. They've married, begun their own
families and moved away from the suffocating world of their first
generation immigrant parents. But when they learn their mother has
only months to live, the focus of their world returns to her home.
Having shown little interest in the Indian cuisine they eat at
every gathering, Mala decides to master the recipes her mother
learned at her own mother's knee. And as they cook together, mother
and daughter begin to confront the great divisions of their lives,
and finally heal their fractured relationship. But when Ronak comes
up with a plan to memorialise his mother, the hard-won peace
between them is tested to its limits. Written with tenderness and
wry compassion, Amit Majmudar has captured anew the immigrant
experience, the clash of cultures, the conflicts of assimilation,
and, most poignantly, the tangled ties between generations.
