Abstract:
In 1947 Punjab, a Sikh landowner with a barren wife takes a second one so he can have children. The wives maneuver for influence, their effort complicated by the political situation--the man is distracted by India's independence and partition--but eventually the wife with the children wins out. A first novel.
