A coming-of-age story set primarily in New Delhi, India, with a
sub-plot taking place in New York, Abby Virtually captures a young
teenage girl's foray into global tech entrepreneurship against the
backdrop of a society caught between modernity, traditional values,
and the changing role of women. Abhaya, an Indian teenager from New
Delhi, India, cannot stand living at her parents' home any longer.
Sharing a room with an older sister, she distastes a father who is
heavy on tradition. A brilliant programmer, Abhaya forges a secret
life online, where she rents her services to clients around the
world with a secret plan to make enough money, so she can run away
from home. With its multiple layers, Abby Virtually introduces
readers to themes including contemporary generational gap, ethnical
prejudice, and violence against women. Yet where Abhaya's journey
ends up taking her, is the last place she would have ever imagined.
