About this listen

On a far ridge of a Himalayan hill station, a crumbling ruin holds devastating secrets. Spanning 70 years of India’s turbulent history, A House Called Askival, follows three generations of an American family from Partition to the present day. An estranged daughter returns for her father’s death, but can the past be healed? A legendary cookbook holds a fateful recipe, but what dark story does it hide? A winged creature arrives, but does it know the 100th name of God?
