Kuldhara, a village in the Rajasthan desert, perched at the edge of time. Abandoned, cursed, nearly two hundred years ago, to remain a heap of rubble and stone. It lies dreaming of its vibrant past when the streets echoed with laughter and the fields swayed green and gold. What happened one night that drove its inhabitants from their homes, never to return? Did they flee to preserve their honour, when the covetous gaze of a local lord fell on Pari, the headman’s daughter? Where did they go? How did they survive?

Malathi Ramachandran

Malathi Ramachandran is the author of three novels; this is her fourth. A Masters in Mass Communications, she dabbled with writing middles, features, and travelogues before finding her forte in fiction. Her short stories have been published in magazines and anthologies. Her passion for the history and cultural heritage of the country takes her to little known towns and hamlets where she often finds stories to share. Malathi’s last book in this genre, The Legend of Kuldhara, recreates the story of an abandoned village in the Rajasthan desert and the lives that were changed forever one fateful night.
