Description
Astha has everything an educated, middle-class woman could ask for: comfortable surroundings, children and a dutiful loving husband. So why should she be consumed by a sense of unease and dissatisfaction? And when she begins a relationship with another woman, is she liberating herself from her marriage, past and culture - or foolishly jeopardising everything she has?
A stunning repackage of A Married Woman, Manju Kapur's classic novel - the tender and funny story of family life across three generations of Delhi shopkeepers.
