Daughter of a Refugee - Paperback

by Tanya Momi (Author)

More than twenty million people were uprooted when British India was divided in 1947. For artist Tanya Momi, this tragedy lives on as history carried by family memory. Born to refugee parents who fled the chaos, Momi grew up in the shadow of their displacement. In this powerful memoir, she brings together historical analysis, personal family letters, and her own emotional paintings to tell the untold stories of the "Great Rupture." From the policies of the Raj to the healing power of art, this book is a daughter's tribute to survival, her family, and the enduring hope for unity.
