| Opplysninger | "Moving and thought-provoking and informative and imaginative and beautifully executed. What a wonderful story!"-Mary Jane Clark "This book is a must for anyone touched by adoption, or India, or the delicate dynamic between adolescent girls and their mothers."-Sujata Massey, author of Shimura Trouble Secret Daughter, a first novel by Shilpi Somaya Gowda, explores powerfully and poignantly the emotional terrain of motherhood, loss, identity, and love through the experiences of two families-one Indian, one American-and the child that binds them together. A masterful work set partially in the Mumbai slums so vividly portrayed in the hit film Slumdog Millionaire, Secret Daughter recalls the acclaimed novels of Kim Edwards and Thrity Umrigar, yet sparkles with the freshness of a truly exciting new literary voice. - Romanen handler om et indisk par som adopterer bort datteren sin etter fødselen. Asha vokser opp i USA og mange år senere legger hun ut på en jakt for å finne sine røtter. Dette er en gripende historie om mor og datters søken etter hverandre. Shilipi Gowda er kanadisk med indisk bakgrunn. "Indias datter" er hennes debutroman
