Rama Leaves Mano Again
Rama's relationship with her daughter is difficult for me to understand. Rama loves Mano, but she always seems for focussed on her work. When she was in England, she left Mano with the nuns while she went to school. She took Mano to America, but then sent her back to England. Now reunited with her daughter in India, Rama leaves Pune two days later to establish her school in Mumbai. Mano must have wondered why her mother was always leaving. Perhaps Mano enjoyed having a mother when she could, and missed her when she left.
Book Excerpt
Rama's Labyrinth: A Biographical Novel (Women of Determination and Courage)
Two days later, convinced Bombay was the proper site for the school, Rama was back on the train. Mano accepted my departure better than I did. Rama sniffed and began reviewing her notes. She had a lead for a bungalow near Wilson College in the Chowpatty district. People already identified the area with education, so it was a good choice. Plus it was near the train station.
Rama began thinking about what she would say tomorrow evening. The meeting with Bombay reform leaders would make all the difference.
