Valiana (Vali), a child of Spanish aristocracy from the Franco era, is engaged from an early age to a noble class German boy. They see each other during summer while growing up but neither is concerned about marriage until one day Vali realizes that in a few months she is bound for the wedding. While at medical school in Madrid she meets an American enlisted man (Reagan) whom she initially dismisses but he refuses to give up seeing her. She escapes the upcoming marriage by telling Reagan she doesn't love him but she will marry him. He is stunned but accepts willingly and she breaks her engagement and her father's heart. When she and Reagan are married, she realizes that she has made a tremendous mistake as her love life is lacking. Another admirer also reinforces the tragedy of the wedding.

After she and Reagan are returned to the states, he is shipped to Turkey. She meets an American pilot whom she enjoys and he wants to marry her. When Reagan returns from Turkey, Vali tells him about the pilot but Reagan dismisses it and they are able to get a tour in Verona. Still unfulfilled, she settles in Verona and meets an Air Force couple, Wade and Cynthia. Wade is a Major in the NATO Communications Group. He and Cynthia have been divorced and remarried but their marriage is still rocky. Vali and Cynthia see each other frequently and Wade becomes intrigued with Vali. About this time, Reagan is assigned to the NCO Academy in Germany. Taking advantage of this, Wade goes to see Vali and tries to convince her to go out with him. Eventually they do go on a date and before long Vali begins to have feelings for Wade that she has never felt before. She even tells Cynthia about her feelings but Cynthia brushes her story off.

After meeting one night at a friend's house, Wade follows her home for a romantic and yet, unexpected evening. Shortly after, he asks her to spend the night at a friend's house. She agrees but on a condition that stuns Wade, however, in a short time he moves in with Vali and the American community is shocked. Soon there are queries from Wade's commanding general.

Reagan returns from the NCO Academy to face a reception of co-workers and Wade. When he realizes that Vali is leaving him, he goes into a rage but restrains himself. Later he challenges Wade to battle. During this time, Vali's original fiancé has become a German officer and is assigned to NATO in Verona. He tries to renew the friendship with the hope of winning Vali. Soon the headquarters calls Reagan for interrogation and he acknowledges that Wade is often seen with his wife. Wade is soon reprimanded by his commander and he leaves for the states shortly with Vali's promise that she will be there too. Shortly after, Vali's previous pilot lover comes for her. Two weeks later, Wade has not been able to contact Vali but waits for her at the Philadelphia airport. The situation there creates intense confusion as to whether he will ever see her again.

If we assume that God exists, what path do you think will lead straight to Salvation?

In this hilarious, tongue-in-cheek novel set in Elkford, British Columbia, Mrs. Anand believes that not eating cows is the answer. For this reason, she hates Jesse, the red-haired cow eater who married her talentless writer son, Ravi.

Mrs. Hicks, a legalist, is convinced that Salvation only comes to those who are born-agains. And that Jesus hates lesbians. What Mrs. Hicks does not know is that her only daughter, Elisha, is a full-blown lesbian, her son, a porn addict, and her husband, an adulterous man.

Elisha, who is in love with the half Jamaican single mother wonders how exactly born-again lesbians find Salvation. She wonders if the mysterious stranger who wears a top hat and carries a garbage bag full of only-God-knows-what knows the answer to this eternal quest that plagues our characters' everyday existence.

Rich with a multicultural cast, irreverent humor, and a twist of magic, Rajni Mala Khelawan weaves a tale of ordinary people seeking to end the blindness that corrupts their lives.

In this dramatic rendering, in this fictional portrayal of three central characters lives, we perhaps catch a glimpse, a glimmer of something which conveys the timelessness of truth. At once striking in the intensity of its sweep, illuminated are the supposed oppositions of victim and victimizer alike. One cannot help but observe the aesthetic connotations of the painted canvas versus a virtually textual one as their coupling and separation is explored concurrently within the very fabric of the narrative structure. The tension rendered is at once religious, yet pagan; prosaic, yet poetic; magical yet realistic as this melding of contradiction takes place.
