There has been an opinion that it was much biased towards feminism, but when read fully we can see that characters take wild twists (jasu regrets the death of their daughter, krishnan understands somer, etc). And though bitter I have to say, that to some extent, India is a male chauvinistic country. It was a beautiful novel and though costly in India, worth every rupee.dsdsdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10244532311461288970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4989928376595084149.post-5709214167348851762011-06-06T16:20:28.036-04:002011-06-06T16:20:28.036-04:00What a great lecture that must have been.
