Publisher's Synopsis

With over 40 million widows—highest in the world—India confronts widowhood not just as loss, but as a gendered crisis marked by centuries of beliefs, taboos, rituals, discriminatory practices and economic exclusion. Speaking (of) Widows, a powerful volume from the Gender Equity Studies, Centre of Janki Devi Memorial College and the Guild of Service, attempts to bring together cultural critique, legal analysis, and grassroots research—including voices of Vrindavan widows.
