When Arya Fell Through The Fault by Reenita Malhotra Hora - Om Books

About the Book :When Arya Fell Through the Fault is the magical, coming-of-age tale of Arya, a twelve-year-old boy from San Francisco, who is ridiculed by bullies. Anything to do with his ethnicity—food, traditions or the fascinating mythological stories he has been raised with—has become the building block of unpleasant school experiences. In the wake of an accident that confines his once vibrant mother to a hospital ward—kept alive by tubes and machines— Arya clings to the only remnant of their bond: an old, battered copy of the Ramayana, India’s ancient epic story of Rama’s battle against demons. One night, Arya falls through a fault in the earth into the Wild Woods, where Ravana—the demon king—strategises to destroy his Ramayana—the last copy left—and threatens to rewrite history from his evil perspective. Will Arya be able to save the story of Rama, heal his motherand return home to tackle the demons in his ordinary world? “A swashbuckling adventure in the land of the Ramayana where Arya must escape the clutches of his inner Ravana. Absolutely enchanting, kids and grown-ups alike will love this fascinating new take on the battle of Good versus Evil.”—Kirron Kher, National Award-winning Actress
