All of Us in Our Own Lives is
the story of an encounter between strangers who shape each others? lives in
fateful ways. Ava Berriden, a Canadian lawyer, quits her corporate law firm
in Toronto, leaves her passionless marriage and moves to Nepal, from where
she was adopted as a baby. In Kathmandu, she struggles to launch a new career
in international aid and to forge a connection with the country of her birth.
Ava?s work brings her into contact with Indira Sharma, a leading gender
expert in Kathmandu. It also takes her to a small village where bright young
Sapana Karki dreams of progress for herself, her community and her country.
Sapana?s world-weary half-brother Gyanu, who works in Dubai, is back to
settle his sister?s future after their father?s death. Each person is on a
journey of his or her own. These journeys intersect with a chance meeting
between Ava and Gyanu. In the aftermath, her decisions alter the lives of the
others. The novel delves into the cynical, monied world of international aid,
and reflects on recent events in Nepal, including the devastating earthquake
of 2015 and the subsequent drafting of a new constitution. It is ultimately a
story about human interconnectedness and the unexpected ways in which
strangers come to relate to one another.
