Download Arranged Marriage: Stories AudioBook Free
Although Chitra Divakaruni's poetry has earned praise and accolades for many years, it is her "luminous, exquisitely crafted prose" (Ms.) that is quickly making her one of the brightest growing celebrities in the changing face of American books. Arranged Matrimony, her first assortment of stories, spent five weeks on the San Francisco Chronicle best retailer list and garnered critical acclaim that would have been amazing for even a more established publisher. For the young girls and women taken to life in these reviews, the possibility of change, of starting anew, is both as terrifying and filled with assurance as the sea that separates them from other homes in India. Through the story of a young bride-to-be whose fairy-tale perspective of California is shattered when her husband is murdered and she must face the future on her own, to a happy middle-aged divorced female determined to achieve San Francisco, Divakaruni's award-winning poetry fuses here with prose for the first time to produce 11 devastating portraits of women on the verge of your unforgettable transformation.
