When Hoovayya and Ramayya return from their studies in the city to their ancestral home, much has changed, throwing the even tenor of village life out of joint. The entry of Subbamma, the young wife of much-married Chandrayya Godwa into the House of Kanooru, sets in motion an irrevocable chain of events which signify the coming of age of a resolutely traditional society. In this book, the epic conflicts of a decaying feudal order are seen through a multiplicity of characters, and voices that refuse to be silenced. This is a ultimately a moving tribute by one of Kannada's greatest writers to the spirit of modernity.
