Violet is the Color of my Heart-Jinia Mukerjee
| In
Violet is the color of my heart, Jinia Mukerjee captures complex human
emotions emanating from everyday experiences and relationships. Most of the
stories are set against the backdrop of France. They articulate strong
diasporic voices, particularly of women and children, their longings for love
and acceptance, their emotions and sensitivities around issues of
multiculturalism, exile and, ultimately, their resilience. One finds in them
impulses that transcend all realms of cultural diversity and at once speak
across continents. A keen observer of subtleties in human behaviour,
Mukerjee's treatment of her themes is intensely visual, the personality of
each of her characters woven in several layers. Her elegant prose infuses
humour and emotion into the stories, effortlessly drawing readers into their
compelling worlds. |
