Book Description:
The Chai House is a
haunting debut novel that explores the complexity of community when
individuals are unaware of their own roles in upholding systems of
oppression. Swati has spent her entire life trying to live up to her
family’s expectations of her. She has learned it is easiest to just do
what is asked of her, without resistance; a skill that has helped her
survive in the early years of the Knights, an authoritarian regime. When
her mother has a request for Swati, she agrees to it as it is the only way
to help her young niece have some sort of future. An emotional page
turner, The Chai House examines the desire to be true to yourself in a world where
familial, cultural, societal, and political values direct you to stay
small and stay silent.
