Bodies in Motion: Stories by Mary Anne Mohanraj

5.0

These stories are a delicious treat. Following members of intertwining families from Sri Lanka to San Francisco, it is a joy to read about these characters and their journey through often conflicting cultures and traditions. While customs such as arranged marriages seem outdated and alien to us, Mohanraj guides us through the hearts and minds of each character,, taking us inside each individual decision to either follow what has come before or blaze a new trail into new emotional territory. Beautifully written, sensual and full of love and understanding for every twist and turn of the heart and the paths that are followed. This is a joyful, generous, tender-hearted and loving read.
