Nina Sibal’s Yatra is a sweeping, multi-generational novel that blends history, politics, and magical realism to trace the journey of a Sikh family across a century of Indian upheaval. From the Partition to the Chipko movement, the narrative weaves personal and national struggles through the eyes of its female protagonist. With mythic elements and shifting identities, Sibal explores themes of displacement, memory, and the search for belonging—earning comparisons to Salman Rushdie’s Midnight’s Children.
