LitPick Review
This book was a very great and inspirational read. Smitha is the main character and she is a rebel. She cannot stand the way that the women of her Indian culture are treated. She speaks to her mom about her opinions on the matter and her mother just says there is nothing they can do about it, our culture has always been this way. Smithas father dies and her mother leans on her son in law for support. He treats her unfairly, due to the way women were treated as inferiors to men at the time. Smitha gets very upset about the sittuation and goes out and speaks of how men and women are equals.
Opinion:
I really liked this book and found it inspirational to women of every background and culture. This book was very inspirational with the way Smitha stood up for what she believed in. This book can be inspirational to women everywhere. It realates to many womens problems. Smitha is like an avearage teenage girl who rebels and so teenage girls can relate to this book as well. Teenage girls can learn independence from Smitha's story. This book was a great read and very insirational.
