With each story, her expansive voice confronts the construction of gender in Tamil literature. Piecing together letters, journal entries, and notes, Ambai weaves themes of both self-liberation and confinement into her writing. Her transfixing stories often meditate on motherhood, sexuality, and the liberating, and at times inhibiting, contours of the body."--Amazon.com. 650 0 $a Indian women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Short stories, Tamil $v Translations into English. 700 1 $a Holmstrom, Lakshmi, $e translator. 941 $a 4 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417015732.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117012436.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20201103022927.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20200307010249.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=68B2C710FF9A11E9A2D37E2597128E48 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
