Malany beautifully depicts cultural landmarks and traditions, interweaving her familiarity with Asia throughout - BlueInk Reviews
NEW YORK (PRWEB) November 13, 2017
Morgan James’ new cross-cultural book release, Mehendi Tides by Siobhan Malany, shows readers the importance of cultural understanding through the story of an American teen and two close friends whose families emigrated from India but kept their treasured traditions. An engaging coming-of-age tale that is especially relatable to the new adult genre and readers interested in Indian and Pakistani culture.
Mehendi Tides is about both exploring other cultures as well as navigating personal relationships. This colorful journey immerses readers in South Asian imagery and history as seen through the eyes of sixteen-year-old Kate McKenna while also providing an emotional and insightful look at friendship and family. An older Kate looks back on these pivotal times in her life and realizes how the relationships and experiences of her past have shaped the person that she is today. Mehendi Tides intertwines the past and the present as it explores the idea of finding one’s personal narrative through Kate’s story.
