The Salt Road · Pulse Beat

Three grown children return to the salt pans of Kutch when their father falls ill, and find a buyer, a flood, an old secret and one last harvest. A family drama in thirty chapters. A work of fiction.

Dhanji Patel has worked the same square miles of salt pans for fifty years. When he collapses in the heat, his three children come home, each with a reason to leave again. A story of a family, a flat white land, and what a person owes the place that raised them. A work of fiction: the people and the village are invented.
