| Summary, etc | The book meticulously and vividly deals with the psyche of women, their treatment during and after partition. Abduction, naked parades, mutilated bodies, rapes, forceful marriages, recovery operation and double displacements of young girls, women as well as problems of old women and their attachment to the place have added tragic dimension to their nowhereness.<br/>Divided into eight chapters, the book captures the ethos of one of the most important event in the history of India, in all its essence and magnitude. The most significant aspect of the book is the depiction of the suffering of women, which has been a neglected aspect so far in the studies of such kind. Another significant feature of the book is a vivid description of partition cinema. The book also looks at ramification of partition in the contemporary scenario. The book is thus a significant contribution to the genre of partition literature. |
