Book Summary

This is a work of fiction—an intimate, single-voice short story that centers on a cross-generational clash within a family in a fictional town. The central thread follows a father grounded in Gandhian ideals and his estranged son as they navigate tradition and modernity in a changing world. Crafted for adult readers and fans of literary fiction, the tone is thoughtful, restrained, and quietly moving, with moments of gentle irony.
