Book Review: A Tightrope Oracle by Mayur Deshpande
A Tightrope Oracle by Mayur Deshpande is a moving, multilayered novel that seamlessly blends realism and mysticism to tell a story that is both personal and political. It follows the life of Sarsi, a young girl from a street-performing family in the marginalized Javmalsi community, who discovers a unique and mysterious ability to see glimpses of the future through reflections in car windshields.
