About The Author:
Kaniza Yusuf Garari, worked as a journalist for 12 years. In this span of time, she was associated with The Asian Age, Bombay Times and Hyderabad Times of The Times of India group.
During her tenure as a field reporter, she registered the human emotions which were normally not of interest to the newspapers. This memory of the intricate details of Mumbai and its bar codes for localities and people represent a mindset which has been subtly represented in the book.
She came across situations where she found honest responses were often rebuked. Society as a whole could live easily with deceit rather than confront the truth and accept it.
In this story, the protagonist, Zainab’s relations with her boyfriend are a cause of concern. But she has hidden this truth from her family. As the pressure to marry mounts on her, she is once again face-to-face with her past.
The so-called openness of the society to deal with such issues is brought out in the book. Once again, the need to not reveal is prevalent. And when it is revealed? What happens? Do read and find out and you can e-mail your responses to kanizagarari@gmail.com.
