A tale of liberation and love at the time of Curfew
Once upon a Curfew, set in 1974, at the time of the Emergency, explores the journey of Indu as she sets out to transform the lives of fellow women by turning her late grandmother’s flat into a library for women. In the process she meets Rana, a young lawyer who helps her set up the library, but she is engaged to Rajat. When the Emergency is declared, Indu’s life turns upside down. As the Emergency pervades their lives, Indu must decide not only who but also what kind of life she will choose.
Once Upon a Curfew is a toe-curling romance with lots of
nostalgia and glimpses of Delhi in the 1970s. A women-centric romance, it is
perfect for readers of The House that BJ Built.
