First darling of the morning : selected memories of an Indian childhood / Thrity Umrigar. by Umrigar, Thrity N. New York : Harper Perennial, [2008], c2004.

Edition:  1st U.S. ed. Requests:  0 Summary:  This book is the powerful and poignant memoir of bestselling author Thrity Umrigar, tracing the arc of her Bombay childhood and adolescence from her earliest memories to her eventual departure for the United States at age twenty-one. It is an evocative, emotionally charged story of a young life steeped in paradox; of a middle-class Parsi girl attending Catholic school in a predominantly Hindu city; of a guilt-ridden stranger in her own land, an affluent child in a country mired in abysmal poverty. She reveals intimate secrets and offers an unflinching look at family issues once considered unspeakable as she interweaves two fascinating coming-of-age stories:one of a small child, and one of a nation.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 813.6 Umrigar Um Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Adult New Books 813.6 Umrigar Um in Processing Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 813.6 Umrigar Um Checked In Add Copy to MyList Thelma Parker Memorial P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 813.6 Umrigar Um Checked In Add Copy to MyList
