關於這本有聲書
Calcutta, September 1969
Three-year-old Varsha Gupta is asking for fish for her dinner. Her family is shocked to the core; the Guptas are strict vegetarians and the child has never tasted fish in her life. But Varsha remembers another life, a mud house by a river where she caught and cooked fish with a different mother.
A psychologist, Shoma Bose, is brought in, but she too has her understanding of the world changed forever by the Varsha's revelations.
Half a century later, Shoma's case file on the child has caught the attention of a group of environmental activists, and her nephew Dinu, now living in Brooklyn, is drawn inexorably into their plans.
Ghost-Eye is an urgent and expansive novel about family, fate and our fragile planet.
