In a world where family expectations outweigh personal desires, tradition isn't simply a guide-it's an ironclad rule.
Madhav is a young man with an engineering job that pays rather well. He also has:
Traditionally, as the eldest son, Madhav must marry a woman who will perform his ancestors' afterlife rituals-a responsibility he's ready to shoulder. Yet, when it comes to selecting a bride, he'd rather deviate from tradition and choose his own partner-an idea his parents are not willing to accept.
Set in rural India, where old traditions and new ideas often collide, Talking Is Wasted Breath is a compelling drama about the challenges of generational differences, societal pressures, and the power of love. In a world where family ties are both valued and limiting, the story follows one man's search for happiness as he disrupts long-standing traditions. Engaging and insightful, this novel explores themes of change, hope, and the complexities of human relationships.
◆ This book was previously called 28 Years A Bachelor.
◆ Spellings used in this book are British/Indian.
◆ All books in this series may be read independently.
◆ Madhav's sister's story continues in Daughters Inherit Silence.
