A young 20th century woman marries an Indian, moves to India with him, and finds herself surprisingly homesick. Returning to England, she must weigh the pros and cons of uprooting her life permanently - and assess her love for her husband. Ultimately, she must decide if she can maintain ties with home even if she adopts India as her future. This book has autobiographical elements.
