"Last night there is a snowstorm that made my home window vanish. I woke up gasping at the water heater. This is my first notice in 3 years. First notice since I left Pakistan. First notice since Nusrat." Tanya Tania is a story about two young women approaching of age in two countries that are approaching of age. Tanya Talati in Karachi and Tania Ghosh in Bombay, daughters of college or university best friends, write to each other of what cannot be said to anyone else: a mother who has truly gone from noiseless to silent, making love that has been a tool, a servant with unforgettably delicate hands and a country beginning to play with religion. When Tanya's sibling gets a kidnapping threat, she places in movement what no person could have predicted, least of all Tania, who sees herself alone in a forbidden bazaar in Bombay, hearing the sounds of your riot-torn city approaching closer and deeper and deeper.... Written in characters that period six years, Tanya Tania is a story of what it means to be between years as a child and adulthood at the same time when two countries are fighting what it means to be Indian and Pakistani, abundant and poor, self-confident and lonely. A story of love between young girls, between young families and between countries, Tanya Tania is, at its heart, a love storyline about what it means to be human.
