Arundhati Lakhanpal’s Unturned Stones is a striking and deeply introspective debut, the kind of novel that refuses to simply be read, it insists on being absorbed, contemplated, and carried long after the final page is turned. At a time when stories often succumb to speed and spectacle, this book offers a counter-movement, inviting the reader to slow down, to look backward and inward, and to excavate the quiet revolutions that shape a life.
