About the Author:
Maria Chaudhuri was born and raised in Bangladesh. She has a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and Religion from Mount Holyoke College, Massachusetts, and an MFA in Creative Writing from Goddard College, Vermont. Her essays, features and short stories have been published in various collections, journals and literary magazines. She lives in Hong Kong.
From Booklist:
*Starred Review* How much can we ever know about those we’re closest to? In this exquisite memoir, Chaudhuri explores her past—both growing up in Bangladesh and her new life in New England—with great insight and empathy for those close to her. Her distant and fiercely religious father is felt mostly through his absence in their daily lives, while her mother mourns the glittering life of stardom she feels her singing talents should have brought her. The young Maria responds to her uncertainty and unhappiness by trying desperately to create order, acting out in numerous small ways. As she grows, she is stifled in her own singing aspirations, and her insecurities lead her to an unhappy marriage. Her recollections thrum with emotion, and her depictions of those in this complex web of relationships are nuanced and well balanced. Deep currents of family and home, and the meaning of those essential words, flow through every scene. Chaudhuri has created a contemplative examination of how her origins influenced the person she grew to be, and how sometimes it’s only possible to know someone by letting them go. --Bridget Thoreson
