Sisters Of the Sari – Brenda L Baker
3***

Kiria Langdon, an American executive on holiday in India, gets lost and is helped by Santoshi, a former slave living in Chenai. They form an unlikely alliance which becomes genuine friendship, changing each other’s lives, and the lives of many other women in the city.

In some respects, Kiria acts like the great white savior; she has difficulty understanding the cultural mores of the women she seeks to help. They, in return, have difficulty trusting her and her motives . Both sides need to find a way to recognize the other’s perspective before they can come to a true understanding.

This is a story of women coming into their own and taking charge of their own destinies.
I enjoyed the book. It’s a solid debut and I’d be interested in reading more from this author.
