A Mouthful of Sky (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798985399806)

In Anu Mahadev's A mouthful of sky, sensual and sexual pleasures, joys, and freedoms are woven

together with gendered inequities, misogyny, and cruelty. The narrator is exceedingly matter-of-factly

vulnerable and courageous as she shows the complexities, contradictions, cruelties, and depths of this

relationship with complete self-acceptance. With a solid certainty in spite of circumstances. And with

forthright insistence of her own pleasure. But it's never simple. Mahadev's voice is like none I've ever

heard--complex, often heartbreaking, strong, and forthright into her lyricism.
