As students in 1970s Bombay, Armaiti, Laleh, Kavita, and Nishta
were inseparable, but the quartet has since drifted apart.
When Armaiti, now living in America, learns that she is gravely
ill, she hopes to see the friends she left behind thirty years
ago.
For Laleh, reunion is bittersweet, but she promises to fulfill
her friend's wish. She convinces Kavita to put aside the past, and
the two search for Nishta, who has long been hiding in a bitter,
oppressive marriage. In the course of their journey to reconnect,
the four women must confront the truths of their lives and
acknowledge long-held regrets, secrets, and desires. And they will
have to decide what matters most, a choice that just may help them
reclaim the extraordinary world they once found.
Exploring the enduring bonds of friendship and offering an
unforgettable portrait of modern India, The World We Found is a
dazzling masterwork from the remarkable Thrity Umrigar.
