This is a translation of the Assamese novel Aolingar Jui that focuses on life in the village of Hanyat, a small stretch of land that lies on the border area of India and Myanmar. Although it legitimately falls under no political authority, the region experiences constant conflict because multiple political forces try to bring it under their control.
