À propos de cet audio
A big-hearted, compulsively readable novel about Asha Mohan, a woman who is given the opportunity to reconsider the narrative of her life while there is still time. Asha in Her Garden is a gorgeous paean to the complexities of family and friends, the unanticipated consequences of ambition, and the mysteries and miracles that reside in every person’s life.
Asha Mohan’s well-loved backyard garden in Montréal, shaded by a cherished old maple tree, has been witness to all the events in her life since she and husband and children moved from to Canada from India decades ago. It is here, in her sanctuary, that Asha finds refuge from her complicated family, and exchanges gossip and advice over a shared hedge with Madame Brard, her formidable business-minded next-door neighbour, who took a newly arrived Asha under her wing long ago. It is also under the magnificent tree where – on the evening of her 50th birthday -- Asha was knocked unconscious by an unsavoury drug-dealing acquaintance of her wayward son.
Now the maple tree has reached the end of its life and must be cut down. In the shadow of its demise, Asha finds herself remembering the attack of twenty years back and haunted by an even earlier, shocking tragedy in India, when her marriage was still young, that led her to uproot her family and leave the country of her birth. As Asha re-examines herself and her reconfigured garden in relation to her friends, her loved ones (“two children from the same body – mine – and each a complete stranger”), and the state of the world, she unearths surprising new clarity about who she is and what might be required of her now – a vision that just may transform her life.
Anita Rau Badami’s storytelling gifts are on full display in this absorbing, entertaining, and deeply relatable novel about the mysteries, complexities, and miracles that ricochet through a close-knit immigrant family.
