A family party back in Darjeeling brings everyone together.Media Reviews"A novelist and Indian cookbook writer mixes a sensual and at times suspenseful transcontinental family saga....Spicing her narrative with Bengali phrases, Kirchner suggests sympathy for her many characters, but her resolutions of their conflicts can seem insubstantial." -- Kirkus Publisher NotesA family is torn apart when two sisters from Darjeeling, India, fall in love with the same man, who loves the younger sister but feels duty-bound to marry the elder, a situation that forces them to flee their home until a family celebration ten years later.
