The Girl Child is a story of Priya, a Fiji/New Zealand-Indian, who marries and moves continents to Punjab, her husband's North Indian home state. Trying to bury her childhood memories of rejection when she was born a girl, her past returns to haunt her when she discovers she is pregnant and comes face to face with a society where female foeticide is as common as a game of cricket. It touches a universal cord, a passionate fight for survival and a mother's unconditional love.
