HABITATIONS by Sheila Sundar
The praise and press for HABITATIONS by Sheila Sundar continues. Vanity Fair featured an interview with Sheila Sundar on April 3, 2024, which writes "In HABITATIONS, the author places readers smack-dab in the mid-’90s as Vega Gopalan’s migratory life is taking shape. Through Vega, Sundar zeroes in on what it takes for a woman to create her path, while telling the story of an Indian immigrant jostling with caste, a human exploring her sexuality, and a student managing sociology coursework as her view of the world starts to blossom.” Lit Hub featured HABITATIONS on their April 2, 2024 list of 26 New Books, including “exciting debut novels from Marissa Higgins, Sheila Sundar, and others.” The April 2, 2024 Episode 193 of A Bookish Home podcast was: “Sheila Sundar Explores Grief, Motherhood, Ambition, and the Meaning of Home in HABITATIONS”, which called the book a “stunning debut novel.” The Advocate reviewer Susan Larson says: “Writer Sheila Sundar’s impressive debut is a story of female identity, loss and home. The book draws the reader in like a good long conversation with a best friend about all the things that matter.” Simon & Schuster published HABITATIONS on April 2, 2024.
