Synopsis "At Home in two Worlds: Essays on goa"

In this collection of posthumously published writings, Maria AuroraCouto, celebrated for her literary prowess and cultural advocacy, offers anunparalleled exploration of Goa. The distinguished memoirist's lifelongdedication to understanding her homeland's multifaceted identity shinesthrough in each essay in At Home in Two Worlds.A central theme in these reflections is the author's upbringing in Konkani, Marathi and Kannada-speaking Dharwad, alongside both Catholic and Hinducommunities, before she moved to Delhi, London, and Goa, enabling herto embody insider and outsider perspectives on the place of her birth. Sheinterweaves her extraordinary personal experiences, interwoven with criticaldiscussions on colonialism, Christianity, and the numerous dualities-oflanguage, region, religion-that make Goa unique.Each piece in this collection is an exploration into Goa from diverseviewpoints, including those of visitors like Graham Greene and UmbertoEco, as well as sociologists, historians, poets, and everyday individuals-family, friends, neighbours, and those who have adopted Goa as home.
