Description

Women fight; they remember; they forget; home in the twilight of their days they weep and curse their children and fellow lodgers in a shelter. As they open up about the lives they lived and left behind, the closed world of relationships of women within their homes implodes on every page: anger, intolerance, and the inevitable unfolding of power at different stages in a woman’s lifespan; the tension between different generations of women; and their dependence on men, both economic and emotional. Nabaneeta Dev Sen’s genius for retrieving the past is matched by the wonderfully powerful lyric quality of this novella.
