About the Book:
In this candid and insightful collection, Letters to a Young Girl, Shobhaa De offers a thoughtful commentary on the struggles and complexities of adolescence in modern-day India. Through a series of letters, she addresses a wide spectrum of concerns that young people face—ranging from love and sex to religion, culture, and identity. With warmth, compassion, and a keen sense of humor, De engages with the growing pains of youth, providing guidance and perspective on topics often considered taboo or uncomfortable.
Her writing is not only witty but also deeply provocative, challenging societal norms and offering a refreshing, modern view of youth in India. Shobhaa De’s unique voice resonates with both humor and sensitivity, making this book a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the challenges young people face in an ever-evolving world. This collection serves as both a window into the struggles of the modern Indian adolescent and an empowering reminder that the journey of self-discovery, though often difficult, is also filled with potential for growth and transformation.
