Malsawmi Jacob takes on the most traumatic period in Mizo history, the insurgency years of the nineteen sixties, to tell the story of a young girl, Zorami. After an uneventful, idyllic childhood, she comes of age at the time when the political unrest and struggle for independence gathers momentum and breaks out to devastating effect. Zorami's life and experiences reflect those of her people, land and culture. The novel is written in Malsawmi's distinctive restrained, understated, always beautifully lucid style that breaks into poetry in moments of passion. --Zualteii Poonte, Associate Professor in English, Aizawl Government College.
