“The World We Found” by Thrity Umrigar

“The World We Found” (2012) As students in 1970s Bombay, Armaiti, Laleh, Kavita, and Nishta were inseparable, but the quartet and their partners have since drifted apart. When Armaiti, now living in America, learns that she is gravely ill, she hopes to see the friends she left behind thirty years ago.

For Laleh, reunion is bittersweet, but she promises to fulfill her friend’s wish. She convinces Kavita to put aside the past, and the two search for Nishta, who has long been hiding in a bitter, oppressive marriage. In the course of their journey to reconnect, the four women must confront the truths of their lives and acknowledge long-held regrets, secrets and desires. They must decide what matters most -- a choice that just may help them reclaim the extraordinary world they once knew.
