Notes

Description
"A close-knit family is delivered from near-destitution to sudden wealth after the narrator's uncle founds a successful spice company. As the narrator--a sensitive young man who is never named--his sister, his parents, and his uncle move from a cramped, ant-infested shack to a larger house and begin to grow accustomed to their newfound wealth, the family dynamics begin to shift. Allegiances and desires realign; marriages are arranged and begin to falter; and conflict brews ominously in the background. Things begin to become 'ghachar ghochar'--a nonsense phrase that, to the narrator, comes to mean something entangled beyond repair"--,Provided by publisher.
Language
Translated from the Kannada.
