Inhaltsangabe
A committed activist who has watched, participated in and analysed the momentous changes that have affected the lives of countless women, Ashoka Gupta, now ninety-two, writes her memoir. As a daughter of the brilliant writer Jyotirmoyee Devi, some aspects of her life may be known. Here she talks of her childhood, her marriage to a progressive civil servant, and from the 1930s, her deep involvement with women's issues. She writes of her fight against communalism, of her days in Noakhali with Gandhi, and her experiences post-independence. Forthright and uncompromising, she brings her life and times alive to the reader.
