In the brief time between diagnosis and deterioration, busy, efficient Mala commits to mastering her mother's slow art of Indian cooking. Perfecting the raita and the rotli, the two begin not only to work together but also to talk, confronting their deepest divisions and failures. But when Ronak hits upon the idea of selling their cooking-as-healing experience as a high-concept memoir, immigrant and native-born must find a way to cross this last divide.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmit Majmudar is the author of \u003ci\u003ePartitions\u003c\/i\u003e, chosen by \u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e as one of the best debut novels of 2011 and by \u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e as one of the year's ten best works of historical fiction.
