What secrets lurk in a familyâ s pastâ and how important are they in the here and now?
Sudha Murtyâ s new book comprises two novellas that explore two quests by two different menâ both for mothers they never knew they had.
Venkatesh, a bank manager, stumbles upon his lookalike one fine day. When he probes further, he discovers his fatherâ s hidden past, which includes an abandoned wife and child. Ventakesh is determined to make amends to his impoverished stepmotherâ but how can he repay his fatherâ s debt?
Mukesh, a young man, is shocked to realize after his fatherâ s death that he was actually adopted. He sets out to find his biological mother, but the deeper he delves, the more confused he is about where his loyalties should lie: with the mother who gave birth to him, or with the mother who brought him up.
The Mother I Never Knew is a poignant, dramatic book that reaches deep into the human heart to reveal what we really feel about those closest to us. |
