Sobre o livro

This International Booker Prize-winning novel is a feminist epic set in northern India, focusing on an octogenarian matriarch named Ma who falls into a deep depression after her husband's death. Her family tries to help, but it's Ma's grandson who brings her a magical cane that sparks a transformation. Ma embarks on adventures, defying societal norms and exploring themes of feminism, family dynamics, and identity. The story is rich with folklore, wordplay, and explores topics such as Buddhism, global warming, and gender binaries. This literary masterpiece by Geetanjali Shree is both elegant and funny, marking the author's American debut.
