520 | _a"As the young daughter of an affluent Parsee family in Lahore, Lenny is keenly observant of the city's astonishing diversity. Crippled by polio but lively in spirit, she spends many of her days in Queen's Park, basking in the hot sun and listening to a colorful cast of characters--Muslims and Hindus, Christians and Sikhs--discuss poetry, love, and politics. But as Lahore descends into sectarian violence due to the partition of India and Pakistan, Lenny's innocence is lost, and with it the fragile unity of a nation."--Back cover | ||
