Where Have We Come - A story of love, loss and family Reena and Nik want nothing more than to keep their son alive, but the doctors aren't so sure. Can their marriage cope with a decision that will change their life for forever? When Reena and Nikesh discover that their child has had a severe brain haemorrhage at birth their family and friends rally around to help. The family matriarch, Sarladevi, reminds Reena of the predictions of the Guru and Reena struggles to deal with her past. They both search for a way to help their child, while Nik seeks comfort from Sarladevi with religious rituals and customs, Reena finds alternative medicine and support groups. Truths are revealed, and a wedge develops in their relationship. Will the chasm created by their differences in dealing with the stresses and strains of looking after a sick child pull them apart? Or will their love for each other and the eternal love of their child overcome the prejudices and customs observed by Nik's family?
Autorenporträt
Saz Vora grew up straddling British and Gujarati Indian culture. Her books are stories that make you think, for readers who like the multicultural layers of South Asian family drama, Bollywood style gatherings and lots of references to food. She draws on her upbringing in England and the layers of complexity of living with her Indian heritage and her Britishness and uses this to create stories to represent people from a diverse community with honest and positive life experiences.Saz's debut novel in two parts was a finalist in The Wishing Shelf Book Awards 2020 and her short story Broad Street Library was long listed in Spread The Word, Life Writing Prize 2020.Before she started writing South Asian melodrama, she had a successful career in Television Production and Teaching... But her need to write stories has led to what she is doing now-writing stories about people like her in multi-cultural Britain.She gets inspiration from listening to music, cooking and watching Bollywood, Hollywood and Independent films, hence the references to songs, food and films in all her books.
