Safed Libaas Wali Ladki

SHORTLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE 2020, AND PUBLISHED IN THE UK AS BURNT SUGAR

Antara has never understood her mother Tara’s decisions—walking out on her marriage to follow a guru, living on the streets like a beggar, shacking up with an unknown artist, rebelling against society’s expectations … but when Tara starts losing her memory, Antara searches for a way to make peace with their shared past, a past that haunts them both.
