“What if we dared to read the pages of our mothers’ forgotten stories? What might we learn if we saw them not as the silent anchors of our homes, but as individuals shaped by desire, heartbreak, and the hope of second chances?”
Sarika and her son Jittu’s life changes as the new neighbors move in. Gitanjali, their young neighbor soon strikes a chord with Sarika, only to realise she is the daughter of Abhiram Naidu, her long-lost love. Sarika’s past flashes in front of her. It was in early college that Sarika and Abhiram met and fell in love. They would plan their great escapades and professed love until circumstances forced them apart. Sarika eventually married Nandagopal and Ram, Poojitha. Years later Gitanjali comes across her mother’s diary to find the riveting love story of Ram and Sarika. As life finds Ram and Sarika at a crossroad once again, will they dare to embrace this second chance at love, or will the shadows of their past keep them apart?
An elegy for the unspoken lives, Amma’s diary is a rediscovery of a long-lost love story. It becomes a chronicle of time and memory inherited by the weight of choices made and unmade. It is a novel that speaks to the ache of things unsaid, and the healing that comes when old silences are finally broken.
