À propos de cet ebook

A clash of cultures unfolds in a changing Indian village.

In a remote corner of Karnataka, Kalinga, a US-educated farmer, returns with his American wife, Hilda, to modernize his ancestral lands. But Hilda's progressive methods and foreign ways clash with the village's deep-rooted traditions, setting off a chain of events that tests the community's very foundation. As tensions rise and old ways are challenged, Kalinga must confront the consequences of his actions when his infant's survival hangs in the balance.

Orphaned explores the complexities of tradition and modernity, faith and reason, in a rural Indian setting. Can Kalinga bridge the gap between his heritage and his ambitions, or will the clash of cultures leave him and his family forever estranged?
