Beskrivelse
What could Sita have been without Rama? Spending her last days in a remote ashram, a tired and greying Sita can t help but wonder, What if ? What if she hadn t married Rama? What if she hadn t gone into exile with him? What if she hadn t been kidnapped by Ravana, and waited patiently for Rama to rescue her, ever the dutiful wife? What if she hadn t returned with him to Ayodhya, only to be later discarded to preserve his honour ? Until one day Sage Vishwamitra arrives and shows her who she might have been had she not met Rama Bhumika, a queen who defies convention. Aditya Iyengar s latest novel is an original tale of two enigmatic women, Sita and Bhumika, secure in their choices but not defined by them. Provocative, layered and moving, this is a narrative that will resonate with generations to come.
