Japanese warplanes are bombarding Burma constantly, putting several Indians employed by the British in grave danger.
Goldram, a senior railway officer, is offered the opportunity to get on an aeroplane with his immediate family and escape the carnage. However, he feels equally responsible for the safety of his extended family, comprising more than 40 people, and decides to make a journey out of Burma on foot. Goldram’s wife supports his somewhat incomprehensible decision to assist his relatives at the risk of his own family, but it comes at a considerable expense to her and their children.
In Burden of Tomorrow, the author navigates masterfully between the past, present and future, adding
depth and intricacy to the characters’ unique stories and perspectives. The narrative delves into how
families react when they are teetering at the precipice of an abyss and serves as a testament to the
power of determination, resilience and the strength that lies within a united family.
Will Goldram succeed in his daring escape, or has he made the biggest mistake of his life? Find
out in this moving tale about family, friendships and displacement where limitless possibilities await
those who dare to dream.
