Serving Crazy with Curry by Amulya Malladi AVAILABLE FOR FREE ON AMAZON KINDLE

Devi is unemployed and unmarried, with more secrets than she knows what to do with. 

She knows she will never live up to the example her elder sister has set as not only a traditional Indian wife but also a successful businesswoman. 

Having lost both her job and a baby, Devi views her life as a failure. 

With nothing left to lose, she tries to take her own life. 

Fate, however, has different plans for her. 

Devi’s mother Saroj stops by Devi’s apartment and lets herself in with her spare key, thinking Devi is at work…only to find her daughter lying unconscious in the bathtub. 

Devi is devastated to discover her life has been saved - not only can she add suicide to her list of failings, but she isn’t sure what she’s been saved for. 

Forced to move back in with her parents, she stops speaking, and instead begins to express herself through cooking. 

Her mother, who has never cooked anything but traditional Indian food in her life, is astounded by Devi’s sudden surge of culinary interest; her wild, crazy concoctions, though far from the meals Saroj is used to preparing, draw the family back to the table again and again. 

As Devi’s refusal to speak continues, her family begin instead to talk to each other, about their own relationships and their own failings. 

And in the wake of Devi’s silence, secrets are revealed that will rock the family to its core…
