The Tree Bride by Bharati Mukherjee [in AsianWeek]
The Tree Bride picks up where Desirable Daughters left off. Tara Chaterjee learns that she’s pregnant and under the care of a doctor with whom she shares an ancestral past. Presented with a banker’s box filled with secrets and riddles, Tara goes in search of her great-great aunt, Tara Lata, who at 5 was married to a tree when her betrothed died on the way to their wedding.
