false 218357 15 Poignant, evocative, and unforgettable, The Space Between Us is an intimate portrait of a distant yet familiar world. Set in modern-day India, it is the story of two compelling and achingly real women: Sera Dubash, an upper-middle-class Parsi housewife whose opulent surroundings hide the shame and disappointment of her abusive marriage, and Bhima, a stoic illiterate hardened by a life of despair and loss, who has worked in the Dubash household for more than twenty years. A powerful and perceptive literary masterwork, author Thrity Umrigar’s extraordinary novel demonstrates how the lives of the rich and poor are intrinsically connected yet vastly removed from each other, and how the strong bonds of womanhood are eternally opposed by the divisions of class and culture. 1183462 2006 The Space Between Us: A Novel total:2904|5:668|4:1385|3:675|2:151|1:25| 2904 11232 4525 718 4 6 false false Thu Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Tue Jul 24 08:32:32 -0700 2007 Tue Jul 24 08:32:56 -0700 2007
