But My House was Here and other stories

Author:   

Owing to rapid development, ethnic Indian plantation life is fast disappearing in Malaysia with much fear that eventually no trace may be left of it. Several stories in this collection attempt to capture the history and culture of this minority community through narration of human anxieties in the midst of such social discord.

An old woman goes in search of a life long lost, a child attempts nto alleviate family strife in her own way and a young woman seeks to escape the clutches of a conservative family.

These narratives also offer an insight into a community grappling with shifting values and generational conflict against the rapidly changing landscape of Malaysian society.
