We are thrilled to announce that we are publishing Uma Girish's newest book, Sacred Fire: Memoir of A Marriage.
Uma came to us via a mutual friend and working with her has been such a wonderful and loving experience. Uma previously published traditionally but was disappointed with the support both for her personally and her book. She wanted more freedom and connection whilst bringing her newest creation to the world. And we have been thrilled to do that alongside her.
Sacred Fire is a layered, heartwarming, honest, and vulnerable memoir of her decades-long marriage. Uma's use of language and the cadence of her voice is so beautiful and evocative that her memoir reads like a fiction book. I was absorbed from the opening sentence.
Her latest work releases this month, 19 May, everywhere books are sold. We will share purchase options as soon as the book is released.
For now, we'd love for you to meet Uma Girish.
