In this collection of posthumously published writings, Maria Aurora Couto, celebrated for her literary prowess and cultural advocacy, offers an unparalleled exploration of Goa. The distinguished memoirist?s lifelong dedication to understanding her homeland?s multifaceted identity shines through in each essay in At Home in Two Worlds. A central theme in these reflections is the author?s upbringing in Konkani, Marathi and Kannada-speaking Dharwad, alongside both Catholic and Hindu communities, before she moved to Delhi, London, and Goa, enabling her to embody insider and outsider perspectives on the place of her birth. She interweaves her extraordinary personal experiences, interwoven with critical discussions on colonialism, Christianity, and the numerous dualities?of language, region, religion?that make Goa unique.
