Overview
Kamala: A Story of Hindu Life is a classic novel of Indian literature which provides an early feminist perspective on issues of religion, class, and gender in nineteenth century India.
Written in beautiful, meditative prose, Kamala: A Story of Hindu Life is the story of a young girl whose idyllic youth as the daughter of a Hindu priest ends with her marriage to a cruel husband. Treated like property by his family, belittled for her education and independent streak, Kamala soon dreams of escaping married life through divorce, risking disgrace for a chance at lasting happiness.
Incorporating the author’s perspective as a woman from a family of Christian converts, Kamala: A Story of Hindu Life is a powerful work of fiction by a pioneering figure in Indian literature. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Krupabai Satthianadhan’s Kamala: A Story of Hindu Life is part of the Mint Editions collection reimagined for modern readers.
