Literature Salon: On Passage, Peril And Passion

Presented by:

The Heliconian Club

Event Details

With Anubha Mehta, Author of Peacock in the Snow. At her book launch last fall, Anubha Mehta declared, “Writing this novel saved me. Through it I found the resilience to cope and come to terms with my imperfections and the imperfections of the world around me.” Anubha moved with her husband to Canada from India, compelled by a spirit of adventure and independence. Two decades later, Anubha forged a novel out of the struggle to establish a life radically different from the “safe, privileged and subjugated” existence she had known. Her debut novel, set in India and Canada, has captivated readers on two continents.
