Vancouver, Canada November 13, 2026 --(PR.com)-- A search for the stories behind his family tree led author Amrinder Sahota from Punjab's family history to an imagined world before the Mahabharata. His book The Kindest Hunger, published November 4, 2026, is the latest part of that creative journey.
Sahota began exploring his family's past in Sun and Moon: One Tree, Many Names. Among the figures in his family account is Sardool Singh, remembered as having served in Maharaja Ranjit Singh's army. The account and the family connection remain subjects of ongoing research.
The family tree also names Gopal Singh, who, according to the family account, served in the British Army and died in 1882. Those details have not yet been independently verified. With Remembrance Day just passed, Sahota reflects on the names families preserve and the questions that can remain long after the people themselves are gone.
Researching his ancestry prompted Sahota to imagine living alongside ancestors in Mrig: Reborn in the Mahabharata, Volume 1. Later, the idea of a world before the Mahabharata led him to write The Kindest Hunger. Together, the books follow a path from family memory into imagined stories, while keeping the distinction between historical research and fiction.
