Some stories bleed. These Hills Called Home is not just fiction — it’s lived truth. Temsula Ao brings us voices from Nagaland, voices rarely heard, yet urgently needed. These aren’t just characters; they’re people living through fear, hope, resistance, and loss — all in the shadow of military presence and political unrest.
This collection lays bare what it means to grow up in a conflict zone. There’s no melodrama here. Just raw humanity. A mother waiting for a son who vanished without a trace. A rebel balancing ideology and family. A child forced to become an adult overnight. These tales are intimate, haunting, and heartbreakingly familiar to anyone who’s lived through oppression.
Temsula Ao’s prose is poetic but piercing. With quiet restraint, she paints the Naga people not as victims or heroes, but as human beings surviving extraordinary circumstances. Readers come away not only moved but deeply educated.
If you’ve never read literature from the Northeast, start here. If you think fiction can’t educate — think again.
