Book excerpt: It is the countries, the cities, the streets, the houses we have grown up in that define our lives. How can we ever escape them? We look at our life years later by the streets we have played in, the houses we have lived in, and the cities whose bylanes we crisscrossed. We are that memory finally. Listen to the House is the story of two girls who travel the world but are rooted in the houses they grew up in, and anchored to each other by the long letters they exchange, no matter where they are. And this they do through their lives in whatever situations they are. The novel evokes an old Hyderabad that no longer exists, a slowness of life that has died, and friendships that have all but disappeared.
