Three generations of a South Indian family beset by a curse involving water across much of the 20th century.
I didn’t find The Covenant of Water to be a page turner exactly, and at 700+ pages this may be a problem for some readers, though I did find it beautifully written and conceived and as someone who enjoys family sagas I was happy to float along with this family of richly developed characters as their story unfolded.
I also listened to parts of the story on audio, which the author narrates, and enjoyed that format.
