Pain and madness. Humour and absurdity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere a man and his mother witness the landscape around their home change gradually, while persistent pain slowly eats away at his body. A couple wait for eternity to be with each other, while the world makes demands on their time and youth. In the eponymous story, a newly married young woman looks out the window at a tree and tries to ignore the sounds of her own intensifying loneliness. A runaway returns to his childhood home and finds it forever changed. A man searches for his old grandmother one night and discovers an open secret.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNarrated with unusual empathy and gentle understanding, these are tales of lives shaped by migration, ecological change and the slow erosion of belonging. The mountains here are not a backdrop but a living presence-at times companion and at times an unsettling force.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBela Negi is a Nainital-based film-maker and producer who explores the complexities of Uttarakhand's mountains through her work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BLAFT PUBN","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":67603346030882,"sku":"9789371976824-new","price":15.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0893\/4755\/5618\/files\/9789371976824.jpg?v=1792988101","url":"https:\/\/www.albakireads.com\/products\/tree-eyes-other-stories-9789371976824-new","provider":"AlbakiReads","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
