Winner of the She Writes Press and SparkPress Toward Equality in
Publishing contest, Veena Rao, knows what it's like to have to
start life over from scratch. She came to the US from India to
create a whole new life and then spent 10 years pouring her lessons
learned, observations, and inspiration into her book, Purple
Lotus. Purple Lotus, is a beautiful story
personalizing the immigrant experience with a universal message:

live, not just exist. Dealing with themes of domestic violence,
fighting the patriarchy, and seeking the right to
self-determination, Purple Lotu
