The Department holds Adi\'s family files, which will take him on a journey through time and memory, through fifty years of India\'s history, uncovering the darkest secrets of his Ma\'s past. But first, he must unlock them by facing his greatest fears.As bright and hopeful as it is devastating, Remember, Mr Sharma explores the ways in which we view the past, its inescapable hold over us and the stories we tell to set ourselves free.
