Specificatii
Ayya's Accounts explores the life of an ordinary man--orphan,
refugee, shopkeeper, and grandfather--during a century of
tremendous hope and upheaval. Born in colonial India into a
despised caste of former tree climbers, Ayya lost his mother as a
child and came of age in a small town in lowland Burma. Forced to
flee at the outbreak of World War II, he made a treacherous
1,700-mile journey by foot, boat, bullock cart, and rail back to
southern India. Becoming a successful fruit merchant, Ayya educated
and eventually settled many of his descendants in the United
States. Luck, nerve, subterfuge, and sorrow all have their place
along the precarious route of his advancement. Emerging out of
tales told to his American grandson, Ayya's Accounts embodies a
simple faith--that the story of a place as large and complex as
modern India can be told through the life of a single individual.
