NEW YORK—November 6, 2018—Morgan James’s new release, Abby Virtually by Ronen Divon, is a coming-of-age story set primarily in New Delhi, India. It captures a young teenage girl’s foray into global tech entrepreneurship against the backdrop of a society caught between modernity, traditional values, and the changing role of women.
Abhaya, an Indian teenager from New Delhi, India, cannot stand living at her parents’ home any longer. Sharing a room with an older sister, she distastes a father who is heavy on tradition. A brilliant programmer, Abhaya forges a secret life online, where she rents her services to clients around the world with a secret plan to make enough money, so she can run away from home. With its multiple layers, Abby Virtually introduces readers to themes including contemporary generational gap, ethnical prejudice, and violence against women. Yet where Abhaya’s journey ends up taking her, is the last place she would have ever imagined.
Abby Virtually appeals to Generation Y and Z due to their enhanced sense of social justice. It focuses on women, specifically women’s rights, violence against women, and social injustice. At its heart, Abby Virtually is a coming of age story with a theme of first love and includes a strong theme of family and related values. Today’s generation heavily relies on technology; therefore, Ronen Divon has made Abby Virtually current in terms of the protagonist being a high-tech programmer. Ronen Divon incorporates educational elements related to India and Hinduism and references a cross-cultural background.
Invigorating and educational, Abby Virtually helps readers understand the social injustice and violence against women that happens every day. Ronen Divon gives an eye-opening perspective of a technologically savvy teenage girl’s coming of age story in a tough society.
