Everything you need to understand or teach Covenant of Water by Abraham Verghese.
In Abraham Verghese's novel The Covenant of Water, when Big Ammachi is 12 years old, she is forced to marry a man decades her senior. Although initially disoriented in her new life at the Parambil estate, Big Ammachi will become the matriarch of this community for generations to come. Told from the third person point of view and spanning over 70 years, the novel connects a diverse network of storylines, characters, and lives on India's Malabar Coast. Toying with conventional notions of form and structure, Verghese's novel explores themes including interconnection, loss, and loneliness.
