Product Description

As long as women write from a male perspective, discussing sexuality is deemed acceptable. The author follows a protocol in writing about sex, which helped her avoid obscenity charges for her third Hindi novel, Chittacobra. The novel sparked controversy for its frank and sensitive depiction of an intense love affair between a young Indian woman and a gypsy missionary from Scotland. Despite the backlash, the book became a celebrated work of contemporary Hindi literature, known for its bold literary style and exploration of love and desire. Mridula Garg's translation of Chittacobra brings this powerful story to a new generation of readers.
