BOOK REVIEW: FICTION / Geetanjali Shree's 'Tomb of Sand': A woman and her many borders
17 August 2022, 18:00 PM
There is a plot embedded here, but this novel is so much more: a long, winding journey, centred on a family, with acute eyes on love and distances within a family, but also through language, Partition and imposed borders, and so much more.
