In "Burying the Sun," Gloria Whelan tells the poignant story of a young girl named Anjali who lives in a small village in India. Set against the backdrop of cultural changes and ancient traditions, Anjali struggles with her identity and the limitations imposed by society on her dreams. When a devastating drought strikes, her resilience is tested as she navigates the challenges of family obligations, personal aspirations, and her hope for a brighter future. Through beautifully crafted prose, Whelan explores themes of courage, self-discovery, and the enduring strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity.
