Publisher's Synopsis
As lover, girlfriend or a second wife she is not always in the wrong but can end up becoming a victim sometimes. Randhir's sexual encounter with a tribal girl frees him of all subconscious inhibitions. Manorama's many men abandon her the day she falls in love with one man. Maganlal Daruwala initiates Shardabai into prostitution and becomes the richest bidder for the maiden nights of her daughter, granddaughter and great granddaughter. A man praying before an older woman surrenders his body to her as a devotee's offering to a deity. A visitor from home brings along Suniti's little secret from the past thus shattering the calm of her marital life. These and more such tales from the subcontinent bring together in this anthology the many perceptions of love, lust, the fine line of fidelity and the enigmatic 'otherness' of all women.
