At the turn of the nineteenth century, a widespread migration took place as a result of British colonialism. This migration was known as the Indian diaspora. It was a time when millions of East Indians would jump ship and leave India to be taken as indentured laborers to the far corners of the world to Fiji, Mauritius, South Africa, and the West Indies-Trinidad and Tobago, Suriname, and Guyana. The circumstances that surrounded this for many of the migrants were poverty, famine, and hopelessness. In the case of those sailing to Trinidad, it was under the lure of “chenee dad”-the land where sugar flows. Bombay Kay Dulahin is a story beyond the grasp of the historians. It is one woman's journey of overcoming the unthinkable through a vision and a dream. She was the daughter of East Indian immigrants in the emerging cosmopolitan society of Trinidad and Tobago. Cast off into an arranged marriage at the age of sixteen and possessing no more than a first-grade education, her strength, courage, and passion drive her to keep her vision and dream of breaking social and gender norms. The book discusses traditional East Indian arranged marriages, the age-old Hindu caste-system structure and traditions. It is a story that shows there are no boundaries and borders when it comes to the resiliency of human endurance, passion, and a mother's unconditional love, ensuring that her loved ones and family are influenced positively for generations to come. A story about love, faith, and hope.

About the Author Born in an idyllic village on the east coast of Trinidad and Tobago, Bhanmatee Gobin belongs to a selected generation of university-educated East Indian women whose forefathers migrated from the northern Indian states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar to the Caribbean as part of the Indian diaspora during the British taj rule. She is an educator by training and has dedicated and devoted her life to teaching and inspiring minds. Bhanmatee Gobin hails from an era of transition when East Indians in the West were struggling to balance the cultural norms and traditions with the progressive Western ideologies. She is one of the few modern-day authorities on the authentic East Indian experience in Trinidad and the West Indies through language, arts, music, and cultural traditions. She has lived in the United States for the past thirty years, where she has continued her career as an educator. This crossing of the Atlantic Ocean has given her a true and unique immigrant's perspective into life in the West. This experience has given her the inspiration to return to her roots through her debut literary piece, Bombay Kay Dulahin, a captivating historical memoir.

The Triumph of Indian Diaspora as exemplified by a mother's love By Arjoon Singh The writer gives an accurate account of an Indo-Trinidadian family life, the village life, and cultural and social norms where the matriarch of one family valued education. She struggled and maintained a persona that is unparallelled in the village's history. Her warm, caring, and humble personality made her truly the heroine of the village.It really did not take a village to raise her 14 children, but her determination, sacrifice, and a vision of a better world for her children.Bombay kay Dulahin is a must read for anyone who is interested in Trinidad folklore, village unity, and one woman's gumption to survive by preserving her ethnic identity in a multicultural pluralistic society. Kudos to the author for reliving the good old days when there were no discrimination against race, and color and there were really "one love"

Good cultural read By sporty32 very interesting book.. did not know about east indians living in places such as the caribbean and upholding their culture..india is one of the most fascinating world civilations.. a good history lesson on the indian diasporathe author has a good command of the old english language and i had to look up some words in the dictionary.. if this is really based on a true story it was pretty amazing the sacrifices the main character made.. should be a movie script.. a good read for people that value their identities and their roots.Looking forward to moreFrom this author

After reading of the extraordinary strength and love for her children of Bombay Kay Dulahin I will henceforth think of the Caribbean island nation as 'TriniMom and Tobago.'
