SHREEN VAID, born in Jaipur, spent much of her childhood living and travelling across the length and breadth of India with her family. At thirteen, she went to study at Woodstock school, located in the Himalayan foothills. She then went on to the University of Manchester to study International Relations and Politics. These experiences transformed her understanding and appreciation of the differences in beliefs and cultures among her peers, inculcating the lifelong belief that diversity is the cornerstone of learning. This, her first novel, is based on the truths and tragedies inherent in our multiculturalism.
