Description

More than a novel, it is a psychological study of the love-hate relationship the immigrants have towards their country of adoption.

The colored immigrants from India and other countries - the blackbirds - have a hard time in England. Many are partly rejected, other totally. But the flow continues .. And Anita Desai has treated this theme in this widely acclaimed novel.

REVIEWS:

Characters glow with life, the scenes are delicately painted and the nuances of changing mood skillfully transmitted. - The Hindu
