Kumkum Malhotra won the Gatehouse Press New Fictions Prize for long-short stories in 2014.

"With its beautifully sculpted surfaces and terrifying depths, this... literally took my breath away. As its heroine unravels, its author strips a family and a society bare. All this in light, bright prose that echoes Katherine Mansfield, only to surpass her."

- Maureen Freely
