Soft cover. Zustand: New. Prakriti and Purusha are two permanent entities - one completes itself in consonance with the other. Women, the representative of Prakriti have been in crisis for a long time, not only in undeveloped but also in developing countries. The crisis owes its origin to a break from tradition, multiculturalism, high hopes, and aspirations. For centuries, these acts of cruelty have vehemently denied Women the right to exist. But this marginalized section of the society is not devoid of an ancestral legacy of protestors. Women, and their supporters, have repeatedly endeavoured to address this question through numberless volumes. But the strangling of these voices interrogating the manipulative system, which has time and again, sought to redact the painful and complex reality, cannot always be ignored. The anthology entitled Cuckoo in Crisis comprises poems of 25 women poets spread out in different corners of India and abroad. It contains poems of various moods and manners perceptively questioning a woman's ongoing crisis and their timeless sins. It helps unleash the putrefied consciousness initiating a metamorphosis of change. The omnibus collection not only reminds us of the traumas of violence committed against women but also offers us the joy of freedom reclaimed by Women.
