The Body Myth
The Body Myth | Rheea Mukherjee
2 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
Mira is a teacher living in the heart of Suryam, a modern bustling in city India, and the only place in the world the fickle Rasagura fruit grows. Mira lives alone, and with only the French existentialists as companions, until the day she witnesses a beautiful woman having a seizure in the park. Mira runs to help her but is cautious, for she could have sworn the woman looked around to see if anyone was watching right before the seizure began. Mira is quickly drawn into the lives of this mysterious woman Sara, who suffers a myriad of unexplained illnesses, and her kind, intensely supportive husband Rahil, striking up intimate, volatile and fragile friendships with each of them that quickly become something more. A moving exploration of loss, Mukherjee delivers an intense and unexpected modern love story as Mira reconciles reality with desire.

After having a few days to sit with it, I think the book is better than I initially judged it to be. Though some of the characters aren't the most likable, be they are very thoughtful written. Really, in retrospect, the whole novel seems very thoughtfully and carefully written, leaving me with a lot to think about afterwards.

DannyOlda Ugh, I feel like no matter how much I check my auto-correct, something always slips by 5y
