Freed from Disgrace dwells on harsh contrary energies in the lives of women. The story revolves around Bela, a former freedom fighter, who administers a hostel for working women in the district of Bankipur in Bihar. Betrayals and disappointment in love have deepened her selflessness, and she refuses to yield to corruption in the face of insurmountable odds. With few equals in Hindi literature in terms of characterization, dialect, folk song, and high diction, this novel will appeal to general readers as well as students and teachers of literature, Indian writing in translation, gender studies, and cultural studies.ISBN - 9780198062189
