Résumé

Underpinned by true events, ´An Ayah's Choice´ draws us into a rarely seen aspect of British Indian history. Following the momentous life of Jaya Devani, an Indian woman harbouring a secret that propels her to find her own agency against a backdrop of sex, class, and race discrimination. In a small Indian village in 1900, aspiring artist Jaya Devani yearns for freedom beyond the confines of the life expected of her.
When she begins a tumultuous relationship with her British colonial employer, William Edmundson, she launches herself on course for a new life as an ayah, a nanny, in London. Arriving on British shores as the suffragette movement is growing, Jaya grapples with a choice: can she really find freedom in the arms of William, or will she have to seek out her own way to be truly free? A story of the tenacity of the human spirit, friendship, and blazing your own path. Perfect for fans of ´The Paris Library´ and ´The Beekeeper of Aleppo´.
