Waiting on Wednesday (Dec 9)
December 9th, 2009
Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we’re eagerly anticipating.
My pick this week is a new book I found called Secret Daughter by Shilpi Somaya Gowda. It is to be released on March 9, 2010 by William Morrow. Here’s a bit about it from Amazon.com:
“Gowda has masterfully portrayed two families… linked by a powerful, painful tie that complicates their lives… A thought-provoking examination of the challenges of being a woman in America and in India — and in the psychological spaces in between.” (Chitra Divakaruni, author of The Palace of Illusions )
“Set in California and the teeming city of Mumbai, SECRET DAUGHTER is a beautifully composed compelling story of love, loss, discovery and the true meaning of family.” (Anjali Banerjee, author of Imaginary Men )
There isn’t much said here but it is enough to know I’d like to read it. I also think it has a beautiful cover. How about you – what are you waiting for this week?
That would be enough for me! Love that cover…
Sounds like an interesting novel, Dar. The cover is great!
Looks great! I'm waiting for Yann Martel's book, coming out in February!
This sounds like one book that I would love; thanks Dar
The book sounds good and I agree with you – the cover is great.
Liking the cover for sure!! Hope the story inside is good!
This sounds wonderful! I can never resist a terrific novel with a multicultural angle.
From what you shared, I think I would like to read this one too, Dar. It sounds good.
Sounds like a good one…and I love the cover, too!
I wonder, How many Indian books are getting released now.. I hope they release them here as well..

SECRET DAUGHTER sounds good! The cover's beautiful too.
