Bestselling author Thrity Umrigar joins us to talk about Honor, her newest novel! At its heart, this is a love story - love for one another, love for the place of our birth. It features a character who experienced India in a whole new way when she returned as an adult. We see her trying to reconcile different aspects of her birth country. On the one hand, she knew it to be patriarchal, feudal, or intolerant. Now she also sees everything that is beautiful about India, including acceptance of different faiths, respect for elders, or a willingness to help others in need or challenge dangerous traditions. We talk about pride, and how it drives religious persecution and politics. We address the age-old question of “who am I.” Are we defined by the religious identity we choose, or does it define us by its nature as an all-encompassing faith? You’ll be riveted in this story and our wide-ranging, deep discussion!
