She would notice how people’s faces turned slightly upward when they stared at the sea, as if they were straining to see a trace of God or were hearing the silent humming of the universe; she would notice how, at the beach, people’s faces became soft and wistful, reminding her of the expressions on the faces of the sweet old dogs that roamed the streets of Bombay. As if they were all sniffing the salty air for transcendence, for something that would allow them to escape the familiar prisons of their own skin.” Harper and Sarah's love story and struggles were well-written in a non-boring way. I'm glad that the author didn't really delve too much into the religion aspect. Overall, it was a nice read and I am looking forward to more books from this author.

Obwohl Sera Bhima erheblich besser behandelt als man in ihrer sozialen Schicht üblicherweise mit Hausangestellten umgeht und sie sich der Ungerechtigkeit gegenüber dem Personal durchaus bewusst ist, schafft sie es nicht, ihre Vorurteile und ihre anerzogene Arroganz zu überwinden. a b c Itani, Francis (January 8, 2006). "A wealthy woman and her servant endure parallel challenges in India". The Washington Post: BW04. If you only get one chance at happiness, you have to decide what you're willing to live with, and what you can live without.”This was... Wow. So much more than what I'd expected. It's a beautiful coming of age story about two different girls who find in each other something they weren't expecting. The sight punches me, robs me of breath, but I fly down the stone path, desperate to stop her. She hasn’t noticed me yet. No one has. Andi’s holding his hands, staring up at him with a solemn, grave expression, her face pale and serious. A gust of wind hits me then, bringing the voice of the officiant…do you take…to have and to hold… Indien ist anscheinend ein Land, wo man insbesondere als Frau mit unmäßig viel Schmerz und Leid rechnen muss, egal welcher Gesellschaftsschicht man angehört.Overall, this is a really great book and I read it in a day because it’s a pretty fast paced read. Along with this the plot is interesting enough to hold your attention long enough to finish it in a few hours. The writing style in this book flows and the author tells her story like a pro. I had no problem with how the story was written and was happy to see that the book is told in both Sarah and Harpers POV. The drama in this book is just right and I am happy to say that we get out HEA in the end. In the future, I would definitely read more books by the author. Rele, Nitish S. "Nitish S Rele catches up with Mumbai-born author Thrity Umrigar, on her newest release The Space Between Us". Mumbai Mirror. The Times Group. Overall, I can't put it on the same level as the Outlanders, but it sufficiently served its purpose, and did a better job than some of the others (the one with Roger Mac's father definitely pops to mind. I have accepted Roger and at least like him, but have more interest in the Reverend Wakefield than I do the father he barely remembered.) The shame of Maya’s pregnancy is mirrored by Sera’s pride in Dinaz’s. Maya has an abortion, with the help of Sera, who had already rewarded Bhima’s care of and loyalty to her and her children by paying for Maya’s education.

I enjoyed reading this book immensely and getting to know its characters. The author touches on a myriad of topics such as bullying, religion, peer pressure and love. We find out that there is more to Harper than just the popular girl and that she never felt much attraction to the boys she dated. Then there is Sarah, who's been quite the loner since she was in school and is extremely religious because it's the way she's been brought up. Tyler has a few nice qualities about him but for most of the book, I didn't like him.If I have to describe this book in one word, it’s catharsis. Like an Ancient Greek tragedy, it grabs your heart, tears it to pieces, squeezes the life out of each single piece and stomps what’s left into the dirt. And then, out of all this pain, your soul flows out cleansed and unburdened, lighter than it had ever been. I’ve heard similar sentiments from multiple Indian colleagues. Somehow, to the wealthy, the servants become invisible. But not in this book! a b c d Krieger, Jennifer. "The Space Between Us by Thrity Umrigar". The Book Report . Retrieved March 27, 2011.

Die fast 70-jährige Bhima arbeitet seit Jahrzehnten als Haushaltshilfe für die ca. 10 Jahre jüngere Sera, die dem wohlhabenden Mittelstand angehört.Maya plays such a vital role in the book and doesn't get a chance to share her POV. We see her through Bhima and Sera's eyes. It looked like she had it in her to be a strong character but the author didn't bother to develop her arc. She ended up more as a plot device.
