Overview: In 1911 rural India, Baba Singh Toor commits a shocking act of violence that forever torments him, setting events in motion that will shape the coming generations of Toors. The weight of Baba's past casts shadows over his children, even as the era of British Colonial tyranny and oppression reaches its height. In the distant colony of 1940s Fiji, his son, Manmohan, a virtuoso of enterprise, bears the emotional burden of his father's sin; he is plagued by an all-consuming insecurity that suffocates his own children. And twenty-five years later in San Francisco, Darshan--inextricably linked to his grandfather, Baba Singh, by both birth and fate--finds himself dragged to the center of conflict; held accountable for the Toors' dark history, he labors to keep the family from irreparably splintering apart. A novel in three parts, Darshan is a raw examination of the lifetimes required to reconcile incalculable loss.

An ambitious, epic debut novel that finely balances historical elements of nations struggling under Colonial regime with the tragedy of men who refuse to release their sorrow, written in keenly descriptive, fluid, and penetrating prose.
Genre: Historical Fiction, India
