Product Overview
In the realm of humanities scholarship, women's own thoughts, writings, and all modes of self-expression currently constitute a central subject of discourse. Against this backdrop, Dipali Ghosh’s unembellished memoir stands as a remarkable testament to the expressive voice of an ordinary woman born in 1936. Embedded within this narrative is a history of family life and patriarchy; indeed, the book articulates a fundamental perspective—a core narrative—regarding the position of women in Kolkata dating back to the 1940s. Readers will undoubtedly appreciate the sociological insights offered in the Foreword by the author’s daughter, Mahua Sarkar, a Professor of History at Jadavpur University.
