Tuesday Afternoon Bookclub: The Secret Daughter by Shilpi Somaya Gowda

Posted by: on: January 20, 2012

In rural India, where only sons matter, a young woman saves her daughter’s life by placing her in an orphanage.  Moving between two worlds and two families, one struggling to survive in the fetid slums of Mumbai, the other grappling to forge a cohesive family despite their diverging cultural identities, this powerful debut novel marks the arrival of a fresh talent.

Join Librarian Carol Carter and the Tuesday Afternoon Book Club as we discuss Shilpi Somaya Gowda’s debut novel The Secret Daughter on Tuesday, January 24, 2012 at 1:30 pm in the library’s Spruth Room.
