This debut novel follows three generations of a Muslim Indian family during a pivotal time of change for their nation. Seema, a consultant for Kamala Harris’s attorney general campaign in San Francisco, has built a successful life in the West despite being exiled by her father for coming out as lesbian. Now pregnant and estranged from the father of her child, she seeks comfort from her ailing mother and deeply religious sister. But instead of a happy reunion, the events of this week unearth years of betrayal, misunderstanding, and complex love. Told from the perspective of Seema's child at his birth, Radiant Fugitives weaves together themes of acceptance, forgiveness, and enduring love, with references to Wordsworth, Keats, and the Quran.
