Book Description
In these stories from Anna Anthony's Mango Ice Cream, love and sorrow, pain and the sweetness of forgiveness, tradition and the lure of MTV mingle in the lives of people in villages and towns of Kerala, India. Here, late in the 20th century, live Roshini and her husband John. Roshini and John struggle over John's desire to set up an ashram in rural India and Roshini's desire to lead a nice, normal life. Asha, who lives in the village of Chavakkadu, believes that her salvation lies in an arranged marriage to someone/anyone with a job in USA. In the nearby city of Kochi, fifteen-year-old Angelique is terrified to discover herself pregnant; another teenager growing up in the same town as the apple of her father's eye is devastated to discover her mother's adultery. The teenagers discover that sometimes forgiveness is the only option in the face of irreversible actions and unforgivable things.
