Om Home As The Birds Fly
In 'Home As The Birds Fly,' the author allows the protagonist, Doug Geoghegan, a young professor of English at a junior college in Bangalore, to narrate the story of his life in his own way. He writes about the boyish, and passionate love he had for one woman who had an agenda of her own, and about another, his friend from childhood, who slowly drifted away from him.
He sometimes quotes from an old diary, jumping forward, and then backward, and then forward again, narrating his memories as they came back to him.
'Home As The Birds Fly' is a love story; a story of a young man who describes his emotional journey back home, back to the girl he could never stop loving.
But who is this woman? Is she the one with the red hair and the aqua-blue eyes? Or is she the one who, in truth was crazy for him? And then, after all the years of separation, does he go back home to her at last?
