From Texas’s wide skies to New England’s autumn hills, and from America’s bustling cities to Kerala’s jasmine-scented nights, one family’s journey becomes a meditation on belonging and the stories that shape us.
When Joseph and his wife, Solly, visit their daughter in Austin, they expect only a season abroad. Instead, their travels unfold into a tapestry of landscapes and encounters—from New York’s restless avenues to Vermont’s quiet grace, from Washington, D.C.’s monuments to the starlit fields of Texas.
At once personal and universal, A Family Trail: Texas and Beyond explores how love endures across distance, how cultures meet and mingle, and how every journey carries echoes of home
A lyrical memoir where roots run deep in memory, even as new branches reach toward tomorrow.
Joseph V. Mykulangara was born in Kerala, lived in Mumbai, and now makes his home between the two places. His writing grows out of a lifelong curiosity about people, places, and the legacies that connect them
In A Family Trail: Texas and Beyond, his debut work, he weaves together decades of observation and experience across diverse walks of life. Beyond the page, Joseph finds joy in family, community traditions, and wandering through landscapes where history and everyday life meet
