Toys I twist, bubbles I blow, one ring passing through another. And sometimes I begin to doubt if there are stories. » (p. 80) « Also, how I distrust neat designs of life that are drawn upon half-sheets of notepaper.

multigenerational family epic set in the southernmost part of India, rich in old-fashioned scene descriptions, told at a leisurely pace. The plot focuses especially on the founder of an extended family settlement and on his son, who goes to work on a British-owned tea plantation.
