À propos de cet audio
In 1971, a teenage girl briefly disappears from her house in the middle of the night, only to return a different person, causing fissures that threaten to fracture her Punjabi Sikh family.
As Singapore's political and social landscapes evolve, the family must cope with shifting attitudes toward castes, youth culture, sex and gender roles, identity and belonging. Inheritance examines each family member's struggles to either preserve or buck tradition in the face of an ever-changing nation.

Amazing story ruined by poor editing
I loved the story. The illumination of Singapore history, cultural norms, displacement identity - all of it blends extremely well, Jaswal’s description of mental illness, without trying to recreate it on paper, is probably one of the most accurate I’ve read.
But here’s the bad part. The narrator is awful. His reading is staccato and unnatural. Even worse is the editing - there is no space between one chapter and the next so it literally sounds like the chapter switches mid-sentence. Since the perspective switches with each chapter, and the decade with each part this makes it very confusing. I had to keep putting the sleep timer on to “end of chapter” just so there would be an enforced break between chapters and I would know the POV had moved to another person.
This is such a wonderful book but it really needs to be re-recorded.
