The Liberation of Sita
Volga
This retelling of Valmiki's Ramayana focuses on Sita's journey towards self-realization after being abandoned by her husband, Rama. Along the way, she meets other women who have broken free from societal restrictions and reshapes her perspective. The Liberation of Sita is a powerful subversion of India's most popular tale of morality, choice, and sacrifice that opens up new spaces for female self-reflection. Volga is at her feminist best in this thought-provoking book.
