<strong>"This is a story intimately and compassionately told against the sensuous background of everyday life in Bombay."--<em>Washington Post Book World </em><br/> <br/>"Bracingly honest."</strong><em><strong>--New York Times Book Review</strong> </em><br/><em> </em><br/><em>The author of </em><em>Bombay Time</em>, <em>If Today Be Sweet</em>, and <em>The Weight of Heaven</em>, Thrity Umrigar is as adept and compelling in <em>The Space Between Us</em>--vividly capturing the social struggles of modern India in a luminous, addictively readable novel of honor, tradition, class, gender, and family. A portrayal of two women discovering an emotional rapport as they struggle against the confines of a rigid caste system, Umrigar's captivating second novel echoes the timeless intensity of Zora Neale Hurston's <em>Their Eyes Were Watching God</em>, Betty Smith's <em>A Tree Grows in Brooklyn</em>, and Barbara Kingsolver's <em>The Poisonwood Bible</em>--a quintessential triumph of modern literary fiction.
