See You in Ezra Street explores the journey of a young woman as she navigates her love life and uncovers her family's hidden past. Tanushree Roy Choudhury, an introverted music scholar with Indian heritage, experiences vivid hallucinations about her family's history, prompting her to seek answers that her parents never provided. Her quest leads her from Berlin to London, where she reunites with Joshua Salisbury, a shy physicist whose presence has lingered in her memory. They discover that their grandfathers were close friends and classmates in early 1900s Calcutta, despite their differing backgrounds. Together, they delve into Joshua's family archives, which reveal diary entries, photographs, and correspondence that shed light on the contrasting values surrounding religion, nationality, and familial obligations faced by their ancestors, Isiah Cohen and Debendranath Roy Choudhury. As they uncover a hidden love affair and the profound effects of a war-torn India on their families—such as deaths and displacement—they realize the lasting impact of these historical events on their own lives, even decades later.
