Description
In a pretty Kerala village full of paddy fields and delicious gossip, a woman dreams of holding her own in a man's world. The odds are against Indumathi. She gets no say even in her choice of a husband. But she wants to live on her own terms - even if it means breaking up her family and snatching what she thinks is rightfully hers. In a story that moves from rural Kerala to Delhi, Dubai, Kashmir and Rajasthan, author DJ explores the psyche of a woman who refuses to be 'good' or play by the rules. Will Indumathi be able to stick by her strong beliefs? Or will she have to give in and accept defeat?
"The author brings alive a family and a story steeped in the beliefs and atmosphere of an Indian town. This realistic novel reflects the varied shades of grey you would find in any Kerala village. A fast-paced book you will finish in one sitting."
- V N Ashokan, Kerala Sahitya Academy
