Description

The cow's utility is often questioned. For Yangata, it was a reality check. His village headman's grandson, Kalinga, returns home from studying in the US with his American wife, Hilda, to pursue farming. However, her modern methods clash with local customs, sparking conflict that threatens to destroy their relationship and the community. As Kalinga struggles to balance his own desires with the needs of those around him, he is forced to confront the consequences of his actions. The fate of his infant child hangs in the balance, adding a sense of urgency to an already volatile situation. This tense and thought-provoking novel explores the complexities of cultural identity and the challenges of adapting to new ways of life.
