OONA is a touching biographical true-life story of a brave daughter by her mother set in the Himalayas. With the sudden and shocking deaths from mushroom poisoning of the daughter and granddaughter the author moves from shock and grief a state where they are inconsequential. The teachings of the great seers of old are brought into a new perspective as mother deals with death and its true meaning emerges. Life takes on life and prevails over grief and self-centerdness.

Review

I often choked with emotion...a one-line summary is...'A cry from the heart.' -- Khushwant Singh, New Delhi Times, February 3, 2001

OONA is a book showing that grief never can die, but perhaps, can be sublimated to an almost unbearable beauty. -- by Ravi Shankar, India Today, March 5, 2001
