Synopsis

The stories in Eternal Search for Hope are simple yet subtle, with insightful details into the lives of people around us. The author's empathy for her characters and her deep understanding of human nature have helped create these richly layered stories. There are deftly crafted strong female characters and realistic and down-to-earth male characters. The themes of the stories are rich and vast from across India, Australia, USA and Lebanon. A Mango Tree is the story of a young Bengali boy whose village is hit by a cyclone, throwing him into endless misery. Daughter of the Late Captain describes what it takes for an unmarried daughter to care for an old, stern widowed father.  Ration Card depicts the profound agony of old parents whose children live in foreign lands.  The remaining stories delve into themes of love and betrayal, the fragility of interpersonal relationships, generational gaps, and the fate of migrant labourers. The power of these stories lies in the invincible spirit of hope in the protagonists.
