Synopsis
"The most stimulating and thought-provoking book on India in a long time..Bumiller has made India new and immediate again." THE WASHINGTON POST BOOK WORLD In a chronicle rich in diversity, detail, and empathy, Elisabeth Bumiller illuminates the many women's lives she shared--from wealthy sophisticates in New Delhi, to villagers in the dusty northern plains, to movie stars in Bombay, intellectuals in Calcutta, and health workers in the south--and the contradictions she encountered, during her three and a half years in India as a reporter for THE WASHINGTON POST. In their fascinating, and often tragic stories, Bumiller found a strength even in powerlessness, and a universality that raises questions for women around the world. From the Trade Paperback edition.

    Book came nicely packaged, and wrapped, and it came exactly as it was shown in the pictures. I appreciate that since I was interested in this book, and the seller was kind to send an offer, and I was happy to accept it. As a fan of ancient history regarding daily life during those times, this was a unique find! Great seller!

    A 1st edition book published in 1978 - It came in near fine condition and was well packaged. The book was wraped in bubble wrap and shiped in a cardboard box. Thanks for a great experience. One of the best book sellers that I have worked with- highly recommended.
