It is a beautifully written and engaging story that provides a glimpse into the complexities of life in a small Indian village.Up-stairs on the roof, the connection between Azizan's tears and Zainub's sciatica would have seemed far-fetched, obscure; down-stairs, however, it was self-evident, clear as daylight. Briefly, Aziz had the evil eye, like her grand- father the potter, and she was using it, as her mother had used it. Sixteen years before, after nursing that mother in the damp dungeon, where useless cries could be deadened, Zainub had nearly died of rheumatic fever. Not from the damp, of course; simply from the evil eye.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
