Description
The Space Between Us by Thrity Umrigar In this powerful novel, two women's lives become inextricably linked, revealing the complex relationships between class and identity in contemporary India. The story of Sera Dubash, an upper-middle-class Parsi housewife, and Bhima, her domestic servant, explores the bonds of gender and shared life experiences that transcend their social differences. Their marriages, once filled with promise, have become crushing disappointments. As Sera faces a difficult decision, she must choose between loyalty to her social position and class, or loyalty to her friendship with Bhima. This beautifully crafted novel sheds light on the lives of those often overlooked in contemporary fiction. A poignant exploration of the spaces between social classes, The Space Between Us is a thought-provoking and deeply human story.
