Mysore, 1932

For twelve-year-old Leela, the movement feels distant, just words in the pages of newspapers―until Malathi Akka moves into her neighbourhood, bringing with her thrilling ideas, new perspectives, and . . . a gramophone!
As Leela gets swept up by the winds of change, it dawns on her that participation in the freedom struggle can take on forms she hasn't even imagined . . .
