Representaion Conducive To Books Queen of Dreams

From the bestselling author of Sister of My Heart comes a spellbinding tale of mothers and daughters, love and cultural identity. Rakhi, a young painter and single mother, is struggling to come to terms with her relationship with ex-husband Sonny, a hip Bay Area DJ, and with her dream-teller mother, who has rarely spoken about her past or her native India. Rakhi has her hands full, juggling a creative dry spell, raising her daughter, and trying to save the Berkeley teahouse she and her best friend Belle own. But greater challenges are to come. When a national tragedy turns her world upside down and Rakhi needs her mother’s strength and wisdom more than ever, she loses her in a freak car accident. But uncovering her mother’s dream journals allows Rakhi to discover her mother’s long-kept secrets and sacrifices–and ultimately to confront her fears, forge a new relationship with her father, and revisit Sonny’s place in her heart.

Article Out Of Books Queen of Dreams

i enjoyed the prose and concept. in some instances, i was bored. i loved the writing but the ending was lame.

I really enjoyed "Sister of My Heart". What that novel did well was build suspense and complex relationships, then reveal secrets that make you re-evaluate the former part of the book and see the characters in a whole new light. In that book, Divakaruni came across as an M. Night Shyamalan in fiction. What is lacking in this book is a) A likeable main character (protagonist Rakhi comes across as a very unpleasant person, and her best friend/business partner is no better) and b) A satisfying

Queen of Dreams' another mystical creation from the magical pen of Divakaruni... infact her name itself holds the mysticism, secrets & wonderful traditions of India. She is definitely a mistress of story telling and weaves fantasy & reality so beautifully that you seamlessly flow into the waves of the story. She has in her earlier works touched various aspects on Indian fantasy tales & weaved them into the so different American world. How the magical power bearers come looking for a

It has been a while since I have read any books by Divakaruni. Queen of Dreams popped up on my library's Kindle site, and I decided to check it out. I am so glad I did because I have not had such a mesmerizing read in months! This book is definitely not for everyone though. It is mystical and magical and full of coincidences which really are not coincidences. Readers who have to like the main character (something I have never understood) will have problems with this book. The main character is

Enjoyable book with the story of an Indian-American woman painter and tea house owner in California trying to make a go of her life and understand her mother's life whose story is also told. Add a little magic.

Well narrated tale of a dream interpreter and her divorcee daughter and grand daughter. The novel starts with the description of dreams and dream interpreter and builds up momentum slowly to introduce the daughter and her family. The independent, artistic, single mother struggling to make ends meet, has been done to death in most Indian fiction novels and this one is no exception. The plot later segues into ethnic violence post 9/11. Portrays how most Asians were targeted and how the business

This was my first book by the Author and it was just about an ok read. The protagonist is a very, if I may say so, cynical character. Throughout the book, I could her a voice in my head saying that the narrative won't get better, but i kept going at it against all hope. The voice was right.The novel is not one big story, it's a collection of the lives of several people, all of them connected through one person - Rakhi. Things happen, things don't happen, you think that things are happening but
