Book Review: The Music Makers

Triggered by a child's disappearance, Rohini Paranjpe Sathe's The Music Makers follows three estranged siblings as they are forced to confront decades of unspoken secrets and the lingering scars of patriarchal trauma. The novel poignantly uses music as a unifying language for characters who struggle to communicate, exploring the complex ways families unravel and eventually attempt to reconcile their different versions of the past.
