And then There Were Three... Supriya Bhatnagar

Supriya Bhatnagar's and then there were three... is a collection of personal essays about a family rebuilding its life after early tragedy. Set in a ten-year time period of the author's life, the book begins with the death of the only man in her life, her father, when she was ten, and ends with the entry of the next man in her life, her husband. The accounts of life are both particular and universal-the joys and the sorrows of being raised in a family headed by a single mother bringing up two girls in the male-dominated 1970s India.
