    “Book Descriptions: An epic tale of mothers and daughters, of love and rejection, Someone Else’s Garden follows the life of Mamta, a farm girl and eldest of seven children who learns early on what it means to be born female in rural India. Barely fed by her father who wonders why you would water “someone else’s garden,” she believes her true life will start once she is married. But sadly, the realities of her situation cause her to flee the horrors of her arranged marriage and her village to make a home for herself in a small city. Eventually saved from becoming one of the nameless and faceless millions of rejected humanity by a sublime love, Mamta survives and triumphs to become an example of a complete soul, empowered, responsible and inspiring humanity in others.
    Someone Else’s Garden transcends geographical divides and cultural chasms to expose the commonality of the human condition. Set against a backdrop of caste divides, banditry, female prejudice and vigorous color, it is more than just Mamta’s personal story. It is also a story of redemption—of belief in the power of that hidden higher self, which stays true no matter how crippling the circumstances or how great the loss. Mamta’s story is truly one of uplifting hope.”
