Her transfixing stories often meditate on motherhood, sexuality, and the liberating, and at times inhibiting, contours of the body.\"--Amazon.com, In a forest, a deer -- Once again -- A kitchen in the corner of the house -- Journey 4 -- My mother, her crime -- Forest -- Wrestling -- A rat, a sparrow -- River -- Trisanku -- Journey 3 -- Parasakti and others in a plastic box -- Wheelchair -- A thousand words, one life -- The calf that frolicked in the hall -- Journey 1 -- A movement, a folder, some tears -- Some deaths -- A fable -- Fish in a dwindling lake -- Yellow fish
