Explore the compelling journey of ‘Girmitiyas and the Global Indian Diaspora’ at The Bookish Owl.

Discover how these individuals became pivotal in shaping our global society. The book delves into their transformative experiences, the lasting memories of those who made new lives abroad, and the profound challenges they overcame. From aging far from home to navigating identity shifts post-Indian independence and preserving community in new lands, this work illuminates their resilience and adaptation as minorities.
