Embracing the Winds, the first part of a historical novel set against the backdrop of the First World War, follows the personal journey of a young Indian boy, Kesu, as he navigates a world of colonial upheaval, war, and human aspiration. Written in a lyrical stream-of-consciousness style, the novel captures the inner life of its protagonist as he moves from the familiar confines of his ancestral home into the wider world.
Kesu hails from the remote rustic hamlet of Ramasila in Palakkad, in the old Madras Province, where he experiences the fragility and turbulence of family life. His mother’s death from smallpox leaves the household fractured, and his sister’s education is abruptly curtailed to suit a prearranged marriage, intensifying Kesu’s restlessness.
