Synopsis "Unpartitioned Time"

Jindo, Malavika Rajkotia's father, arrives in India as the Partition riots erupt.He is given a patch of barren land in small-town Karnal, to clear, cultivate, and resume life as landlord and patriarch. But stripped of his history, and facing an uncertain future in a land with an unfamiliar language, hetransforms profoundly. Around this generous, funny, loving, and growinglydespondent figure, Rajkotia weaves an intricate narrative of her family'spast and present, exploring themes of longing and belonging, privilege andthe loss of it, and reflecting on the resilience of a people denied autonomy.Through her raw, lyrical prose, she guides readers through the struggles ofa sprawling clan-uncles, aunts, siblings, cousins, and revered heroes-striving for recognition, identity, and security.Rajkotia fearlessly confronts her milieu, whether navigating the radicalKhalistan movement, the tensions between the Sikh faith and Hindunationalism, or the pervasive cynicism of Indian politics. Her vivid, meditative, finely-detailed portraits of a rich family life are filled withmoments of tears, laughter, and music, and a diverse array of characters whoare immensely relatable. Ultimately, this brave and moving book is aboutthe enduring quest for meaning and fulfilment that transcends culturalboundaries.
