The Space Between Us

by Thrity Umrigar

In the bustling metropolis of Bombay, two women from divergent worlds are bound by a shared strife. Sera Dubash, an upper-middle-class Parsi housewife, grapples with the emotional scars of her abusive marriage, while Bhima, an illiterate domestic servant, endures the brutal realities of poverty and loss. Over more than two decades of service, their lives have interwoven into a fabric of complex emotions, despite the rigid barriers of caste and class. 'The Space Between Us' offers an illuminating glimpse into the paradoxical unity and division that define their existence, capturing the essence of their emotional journey with piercing insight and tender understanding.
