Voices In The Wind

This is about a little girl, Lisa, growing up in the early sixties with her siblings and her immigrant parents and how they coped with life. In this era, the children didn't have the technology of today but enjoyed a carefree and simple life. Lisa's parents who were from Kerala, came to Malaya, speaking only their native language, Malayalam but picked up the National Language and made a living as a tailor. Life was not easy but together they pulled through.

The story was seen through five-year-old Liza as she passes through each phase of her life. Her early life, she was described as stubborn, street smart and tomboyish. She developed a sixth sense and according to her, Lisa's Mum disliked her. Lisa made childish attempts to reconcile with her. She craved for her Mum's attention and resented the attention she was giving to her little brother, Brian. The story is divided into three other parts and seen through the eyes of her Dad, Mum and her not so favorite sister, Anna.
