Indu K Mallah (Author)
Synopsis

About the Author: [Indu K. Mallah is a writer, poet, and social activist living in Ooty, in South India. Several of her short stories have been broadcast over B.B.C., two of her screenplays have won national awards, and her novel, Shadows In Dream-time has won wide critical acclaim, and has been translated into several languages, including German, Dutch, Portuguese and Japanese. A collection of her poems B(r)oken Moon and Other Poems was recently published by Authorspress. Some years ago, a cross-section of her work was show-cased on a BBC web-site on South Asian women writers. A second collection of poems, a collection of folk-tales, and a memoir are all in the pipe-line. She is currently working on a third collection of poems.

This "monument of words" from a bereaved mother to her only daughter can be read at many levels. At one level, it is a touching tribute of a grief-stricken mother to her beloved daughter. At another, it charts her painful process of grappling with her dark night of her soul. At yet another, it delineates her own slow evolvement, step, by searing step. At whichever level one reads it, this is a moving human document which will touch a chord in all sensitive, caring people, for who has not known loss?

This is a brave effort by Indu K. Mallah to capture the essence of her daughter's life, cut short by an unfortunate illness. She tells it in a mother's voice, filled with tenderness and pain. The moving story and the beautiful prose and poetry will echo in the hearts of all those who have lost a child.
