Synopsis
Rambling with Rukka, a co-authored book of memoirs written by a mother and daughter, traverses roughly eight decades in the life of Rukmini Srinivas, from her childhood in pre-Independence India in the 1930s to the present day. Rukka’ s father, an accountant with the Southern Command, moved around India and the family experienced first-hand the diversity and variety in India’ s regions and cultures. The book meanders from Poona and stories about Rukka’ s childhood, her mother’ s cooking and kitchen garden, to Rukka’ s life in Delhi with her husband— the renowned social anthropologist M.N. Srinivas, her experiences of juggling family and career, and the family’ s fateful migration to Bangalore in the 1970s before it became known as a tech city. Engaging anecdotes, richly descriptive and by turns poignant, surprising, hilarious, always honest and human, bring people and places alive and take the reader on a delightful journey.
