About the book

Sometimes life takes everything we give and still feels like it’s giving nothing back. But somewhere within that silence, there lies a moment—a turning point—that reminds us of the power we still hold. This novel is built around that moment. The Carved Cabinet is the English translation of the Hindi novel Naqqashidar Cabinet, originally written by Sudha Om Dhingra. It was an honor for me to bring this powerful story to English readers. As my first work of literary translation, it is more than a linguistic journey—it is an emotional one, too. At its heart, this is the story of a woman who dares to stand up when the world turns its back. Drawn into a life-altering situation, she faces deceit and danger—but instead of breaking, she finds the strength to fight back. Her courage becomes a quiet revolution. Set across the vibrant land of Punjab and the layered realities of American life, the story reminds us that resilience is universal. It belongs to anyone who refuses to be silenced and chooses to rise, again and again. This work is my humble attempt to bring her powerful story to a broader audience through English. -Aravind Anil
