Namita Gokhale's new book-Never Never Land is all about friendship, love, secrets and, of course, the mountains
MANDIRA NAYAR
The Dacha diaries

Never Never Land is slim, but crams within its 176 pages a universe of friendship, love, family and belonging. Evocative, elegant and hugely satisfying, the book weaves a story of timelessness in a place where time stops.

Iti Arya-middle-aged, single, a freelance editor and an aspiring novelist-moves to The Dacha in the Kumaon to live with her grandmother, Badi Amma Lila, and Rosinka Paul Singh. It is where she spent her childhood and was happy. At the heart of the book is the relationship between her grandmother and Rosinka.
