Suchita Malik gives you this incredible story of five strong willed and independent women who, even under difficult circumstances where life takes a harsh turn, they are not ready to just step down and accept defeat.The main protagonist of the novel, Kaushalya, is the source of inspiration for the young women who wish to follow her footsteps.

Summary of the Book

This is a story of Kaushalya who is a lot like the women of today. She likes to live life by her own terms, and questions the customs and traditions that have been followed by her community from time immemorial. Also, she is the sole heiress of a very rich family. However, she has seen and experienced her share of lows in life. Kaushalya married into a middle class family which is not conventional for someone of a higher social status. Eventually, she is widowed and left with a child. It doesn't stop there. She goes on to marry her Devar, i.e., brother in law.
The reason she is an idol for the women of the younger generations is that she experienced all of this during the tragic events that took place in Punjab at the time of the Partition; a time when it was unusual for a woman to stand up for herself.
