Inhaltsangabe
Singapur, 1951 Als Josephina ein Mädchen ist, sperren ihre Eltern sie in einem Raum mit dem Vater des Jungen, mit dem sie verlobt ist. Was als nächstes passiert, wird den Verlauf ihres Lebens für kommende Generationen bestimmen. Neuseeland, 1984 verlassen Josephina und ihre Familie Sri Lanka nach Neuseeland. Doch ihr neues Zuhause ist nicht das, was sie erwartet hatten, und für die Kinder Sithara und Suri verändert ein plötzliches und schockierendes Ereignis alles. London, 2018 Ankunft vor der Haustür ihres Onkels Suri, jetlagged und herzgebrochen, hat Annie keine Ahnung, was sie erwarten soll - alles, was sie weiß ist, dass Suri von seiner Munpa ausgestoßen wurde, weil sie schwul ist, wie sie es ist. Amma bewegt sich zwischen Städten und Generationen und folgt drei Frauen auf sehr unterschiedlichen Wegen, vor dem Hintergrund wechselnder Kulturen. Da Umstände und Missverständnisse sie auseinander zwingen, braucht es die tiefste Liebe, sie wieder zusammenzustricken, bevor es zu spät ist
