From acclaimed author Abraham Verghese, author of Cutting for Stone, comes an expansive historical novel set in Kerala, South India, spanning the years 1900 to 1977.
The story follows three generations of a Christian family living in Kerala who are haunted by a mysterious condition: in every generation, at least one family member dies by drowning. At the center of the story is a twelve-year-old girl who is sent by boat to an arranged marriage, beginning a remarkable life that eventually leads her to become the family's beloved matriarch, known as Big Ammachi.
As decades pass, the family experiences love, loss, changing traditions, personal triumphs, and dramatic advances in medicine. Alongside the family's story, Verghese introduces physicians and other characters whose lives become intertwined with the search for understanding behind the family's mysterious affliction.
Beautifully layered and deeply immersive, The Covenant of Water explores family, faith, grief, medicine, cultural change, and the ways knowledge can transform lives. It was also an Oprah's Book Club selection and an instant New York Times bestseller.
