About the Book
This compelling collection of essays by Shashi Deshpande offers readers a deep and nuanced exploration of literature, language, and society. Addressing issues ranging from the divide between English and regional languages to the imperatives of translation and the pressures of the global literary market, Deshpande combines intellectual rigor with personal insight. She reflects candidly on her own craft, sharing the creative process behind her novels and offering a rare glimpse into the writer’s world. Many essays address the complexities of being a woman writer, discussing gender, feminism, marginalization, and the reinterpretation of myths with honesty and clarity. Thought-provoking and engaging, this volume captures the breadth of Deshpande’s non-fiction work, making it an essential companion to her celebrated fiction.
