Homeless Bird

By Gloria Whelan

A story told clearly and without extravagance, somber in the way in which it confronts the difficulties of Koly’s life, and yet radiant with hope.

Married at thirteen to a dying child she has never met, Koly’s life begins a seemingly inexorable downward spiral into poverty and isolation. Abandoned in a city of temples and white sari-clad widows, the young girl discovers opportunities and savage crimes among those who would help her and those who would exploit her.

Winner of the American National Book Award.
