Unmoored

Ramachandran Usha

Translated by Krupa Ge

A collection that includes two short stories, “Khushka” and “Success,” and Unmoored, a translation of the novella Karai Thedum Odangal. The latter, an exploration of themes of migration and belonging, aspirations and family life, follows three characters—Ayesha, Indu, and Ameera—as they return to Chennai after long periods spent in Dubai, each looking to reunite with the loved ones they left behind and find a real sense of home.
