Child's day
|
Summary/Abstract |
Geeta's day begins as most children's do; she washes, brushes her teeth, and has her breakfast. But when she sets off to school, passing the kamar at his forge, the bhandari shaving a customer and the mali weaving garlands of flowers to offer to the temple gods, her world begins to beat to the distinctive rhythm of Indian village life.
