HTML:<b>The bestselling author of <i>The Space Between Us</i> and Reese's Book Club pick <i>Honor</i> delivers a powerful story about family secrets, a mother's power, and the importance of forgiveness.</b><br /> Remy Wadia left India for the United States long ago, carrying his resentment of his mother with him. He has now returned to Bombay to adopt a baby from a young pregnant girl—and to see his elderly mother for the first time in several years. Discovering that his mother is in the hospital, has stopped talking, and seems to have given up on life, he is struck with guilt for not realizing just how sick she has become.<br /> His unexpected appearance and assiduous attention revives her and enables her to return to her home. But when Remy stumbles on an old photograph, shocking long-held family secrets surface. As the secrets unravel and Remy's mother begins communicating again, he finds himself reevaluating his entire childhood, his relationship to his parents, and his harsh judgment of the decisions and events long hidden from him, just as he is on the cusp of becoming a parent himself. But most of all, he must learn to forgive others for their failures and human frailties.<br /> Readers of <i>Sankofa</i> by Chibundu Onuzo, <i>Fault Lines</i> by Emily Itami, and <i>Dava Shastri's Last Day</i> by Kirthana Ramisetti will devour this story of secrets and family, a reminder that forgiveness comes from realizing that the people we love are usually trying to do their best in the most difficult situations.
