The Strawberry Patch
Synopsis
In stories that span the last hundred years, Nonda Chatterjee introduces us to a spirited cast of characters. At the turn of the nineteenth century, a zamindarni defends her bastion—her land, her home and her subjects—with military precision against a formidable force of British soldiers. In a little village in Rewa in the 1950s, a young woman’s fierce loyalty to her ‘untouchable’ community leads her to make an unimaginable sacrifice. A gifted girl embroiders on a quilt the moving tale of a lifetime of travails overcome by tremendous fortitude. And, closer to our times, Krishna, named after the legendary Draupadi, discovers to her utter surprise that blood-ties seldom determine true family.
