Her novel "The Last Brother" is based on an orphaned Jew who escaped Nazi invasion of Czhechoslovkia and was denied entry in British-run Palestine. In a review published in "The Guardian" about the novel, it has been quoted as "a brilliant and believable account, a compelling picture of a child's loneliness and of the brief, feverish excitement when it ends". New York Times rated her fourth novel, "The Last Brother" next only to 2008 Nobel Prize winner J. M. G. Le Clézio among all Mauritian writers. The book was translated in English by Geoffrey Strachan and was her second work to be translated.
