Published after winning Galaxy Galloper’s “Novella Spectacular” contest to find the best unpublished novella, Where the Sun Will Rise Tomorrow is the beautifully written story of a girl who has no plans to become anything more than what has been promised to her by history—until those promises become untenable.
 ************  
PRAISE FOR WHERE THE SUN WILL RISE TOMORROW:

“Rohatgi's prose is measured and highly detailed, even when balancing the emotional lives of her characters.... [Where the Sun Will Rise Tomorrow] does an excellent job of placing readers directly into the politics of the time, highlighting the clash between old and new and between the region's various subcultures... Leela and Maya are so carefully composed that readers will get caught up in this pivotal time in their young lives.”Kirkus Reviews

ABOUT WHERE THE SUN WILL RISE TOMORROW:

It's 1905, and the Japanese victory over the Russians has shocked the British and their imperial subjects.
Sixteen-year-old Leela and her younger sister, Maya, are spurred on to wear homespun to show the British that the Indians won't be oppressed for much longer, either, but when Leela's betrothed, Nash, asks her to circulate a petition amongst her classmates to desegregate the girls' school in Chandrapur, she's wary.
She needs to remind Maya that the old ways are not all bad, for soon Maya will have to join her own betrothed and his family in their quiet village.
When she discovers that Maya has embarked on a forbidden romance, Leela's response shocks her family, her town, and her country firmly into the new century.
