Sujatha Hampton’s debut novel, As It Was Written, is in stores today. Here’s the blurb:
The epic journey of an Indian-American family which unfolds when men and women, Hindus and Catholics, histories and curses, collide.

In McLean, Virginia, Dr. Raman Nair lives a life of abounding satisfaction with his tiny wife, Jaya, and his harem of enormous and beautiful daughters. He has been away from his native Kerala, India for so long that he has happily forgotten the ancient Brahmin curse that follows his family like a black cloud, killing one girl for love in every generation. But his wife hasn’t forgotten, nor has his baby sister, Gita. Suddenly his daughters are up to no good and Dr. Raman Nair doesn’t know which way to turn.

This book is fantastic. Trust me, it’s well worth reading. Go buy it, then let me know what you think.
