The Space Between Us by Thrity Umrigar. "A great book about friendship and class struggle in India." “Set in India about a wealthy woman and her downtrodden servant and their parallel and crossecting lives. I liked the idea of two completely different Indias running side by side - and of course that age old idea that money doesn't buy you happiness.” “A poignant story set in contemporary Bombay, this book tells the story of two women whose lives are intricately bound together through the complicated relationship of master and servant. The trappings of their class differences which both drives them together yet tears them apart is vividly explored through realities of their place in the socially stratified culture of India.”
