A girl, some grannies, a monsoon or two...
Singapore, 1981
Anoushka has lived in seven countries without inconveniencing anyone-but no one can stop all hell breaking loose when she takes up with the old ladies at Saint Beatrice Hospital Elderly Ward.
With the reappearance of Po-Po's old mahjong set, Guy's indiscretions and her own questionable decision, a world of family secrets begins to unfold. Who are these people she thought she knew? And who is she? Anoushka's life is about to take a drastic turn.
'A sparkling transportation across generations and cultural worlds that is as moving as it is funny. You won't want to put it down.'
-RUTH VAN REKEN, author of Letters Never Sent and Third Cultural Kids: Growing Up Among Worlds
'Cynthia Green's blue feet monsoon is full of references to Singapore in the 1980s (totally my jam). Who else remembers Paya Lebar airport (precursor to fabulous new Changi)? Whoo! I do I do.
-ANTJE RAUWERDA, PhD, Professor of British and Postcolonial Literatures
'This is an immersive tapestry of sights, sounds, smells, tastes and textures. Each thread invites us to explore a rich landscape-both in terms of physical geography and human experience in which time, places, cultures and people interact. In other words, I freaking loved it!'
-MATHIEU GAGNON, PhD, TCK Research Podcast
'So many relatable moments and resonant insights. I have a bunch of little postits sticking out of pages that validated something I've thought/felt. I even stayed up 'til 1:30 in the morning to finish it!'
