Maru and the Maple Leaf follows Priti Moghe as she reads through three cartons of writings that she has inherited from Maru Sivaraman. Priti and Maru are themselves characters from the author’s oeuvre. Ingeniously, she has interwoven a biography of her own writing life into Priti’s relationship with her fellow doctor, Stephen Woodhouse.

An intricate embroidery of a hundred different stories, each with its own appropriate texture, many brilliantly unfinished, until they all end together in the revelatory paean of the conclusion. The author does not just write from within herself, she writes from within her characters’ inner world in a variety of voices that all sound authentic. The poet in Parameswaran also shines through in this novel of guilt and passion.
