Two Hands, Wrapped In Gold is a fable. It's told in S. B. Divya's plain-spoken style (I like it), but it's probably the most literary thing I've read by her. The protagonist is gifted (cursed) with the touch of gold, like King Midas. His mother figures out how to manage it, so he can sort of manage with it as a gift if everyone is careful. He finds love, but it's a complicated story of immigration and confidence. Well worth reading.
