Linen Press is delighted to announce the launch of Hema Macherla’s second novel, Blue Eyes.
Her debut novel, Breeze from The River Manjeera, has been a best seller and has collected a swathe
of awards including Richard & Judy, The Big Red Read and National Reading Hero. It has been translated into several languages.
Set against the turbulent backdrop of 1920s India when Ghandi is about to take the world stage and seeds of change are in the air, Blue Eyes opens with the recently widowed child bride, Anjali, narrowly escaping the funeral pyre and charts her journey towards self-discovery and self-worth. A fast moving narrative with a subtle commentary about the fate of women. At its heart is the love of two men for one woman.
