Waiting on Wednesday (Dec 9)

December 9, 2009 by Darlene


Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.


My pick this week is a new book I found called Secret Daughter by Shilpi Somaya Gowda. It is to be released on March 9, 2010 by William Morrow. Here’s a bit about it from Amazon.com:

“Gowda has masterfully portrayed two families… linked by a powerful, painful tie that complicates their lives… A thought-provoking examination of the challenges of being a woman in America and in India — and in the psychological spaces in between.” (Chitra Divakaruni, author of The Palace of Illusions )

“Set in California and the teeming city of Mumbai, SECRET DAUGHTER is a beautifully composed compelling story of love, loss, discovery and the true meaning of family.” (Anjali Banerjee, author of Imaginary Men )

There isn’t much said here but it is enough to know I’d like to read it. I also think it has a beautiful cover. How about you – what are you waiting for this week?
