Book excerpt: Divya, an East Indian Canadian, travels to Southern India as an exchange student where she is overwhelmed by its extraordinary beauty and ugliness, its vibrancy and hypocrisy. As Divya discovers the past that her family has desperately tried to conceal, she is faced with a daunting choice: to fulfill her role as a dutiful daughter, or to search her soul and follow her Dharma. Divya's Dharma is a story about tragedy, love, and spiritual growth. Issues such as India's staggering poverty, appalling corruption, and the horrors of inter-caste wars are woven into a plot driven by characters and events that shape and change Divya's life forever.
