Sohra is the Khasi name for Cherrapunjee, well known for being the wettest place on earth. The Sohra summer is the background against which Bor and his family trace the pattern of their lives. It is a close-knit matrilineal society hitherto not exposed to the outside world. This book although written primarily to satisfy the story telling urge, is also about the need to express the universal predicament of existence, of being, in a social milieu peculiar to the Khasi living in the 18th and 19th centuries.
