The Red Woman (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781645606376)

These Poems are a Tribute, Ode and Stories of Womanhood, portraying Women's complex lives in India as well as around the world. These are composed in diverse as well as specific poetic forms with modes of configuring female thoughts, feelings and experiences. Women themselves, as well as Female Trajectories and Historiography through the ages are known to have been purposefully, strategically and mindlessly marginalized in our largely Patriarchic societies. Their Voicelessness, Untold Stories need much wider audiences than ever before in our 21st Century. The World now claims to be more advanced, more knowledgeable and civilized than ever before. We are now reaching out to the sun, moon and stars in the galaxy, but ironically a very significant part of Humanity is still ignored and needs to be explored and understood much more. Women have been overtly and covertly traumatized, mutilated, raped, dishonoured, silenced, and humiliated for too long. These poems trace many female spaces and times of reprehensible acts as well as their stories of unassailable fortitude and courage, their spheres of positive effervescence to rise like the phoenix from the ashes, which continue to stimulate our world. These women-human-centric poems are beyond labels and categories, without any discrimination or borders. THE RED WOMAN promises to inspire and provoke us with echoes reverberating across the roof of the world with hopes and dreams of a better world of compassion and justice. An engaging must-read book for one and all.
