An hour and forty-five minutes before Nanzeen's life began -- began as it would proceed for quite some time, that is uncertainly -- her Mother, Ruphan, felt an iron fist squeeze her belly. Ruphan squatted on a low three-legged stool outside the kitchen hut. She was plucking a chicken because Hamid's cousins had arrived from Jessore and there would be a feast. "Cheepy-cheepy, you are old and stringy," she said, calling the bird by name as she always did, "but I would like to eat you, indigestion or no indigestion. And tomorrow I will have only boiled rice, no parathas."
