Description: |
In this collection of short stories, R. Chudamani reveals the battles fought by women in their daily lives and notes their different reactions and perspectives on life. The issues Chudamani raises are as prevalent in the present time as they were at the time she wrote these stories. |
Synopsis: |
'Her smile a saga of womanhood.' Abhirami ...a courageous village girl seeks vengeance for being raped. Devaki ...weakened and afraid, a mother of six cringes at her seventh pregnancy. Sankari ...a free-spirited woman who finds liberation in death. The underlying theme in each of the stories is the woman as she sees herself, not how others believe her to be. Painted with earthy colours and lyrical language, R. Chudamani's women speak gently yet firmly of the battles fought daily within the home and outside it. They face the currents of life, fighting, resisting, and, at times, succumbing. |
