Travels Beyond Death

Come, travel with Kushi, from the bed in the morgue where she lies as an unidentified corpse - a rape-and-murder victim. To her childhood and teenage in Kolkata and Rajpur, early marriage days in East Delhi beyond the Yamuna, to a few lovely years in Bangkok, then to the most tortuous decades in a Delhi prison. Travel with her then on the National Highway, going towards Neemrana Fort in Alwar but flowing out in the end in the waters of Garh Ganga in Hapur. Meet Rahul, Kuto, Rakhi Didi, Veena, Tapen, Alex, Shabnam and so many other fellow-travelers. Travel by train, plane, car, taxi and hearse...and then by flowing water.
