The contemporary woman is struggling to find her rightful place in society, to claim her rights at home, in the community, and at her workplace and most significantly to realise her inner self and her aspirations and give expression to those urgings. Of Infidels and Infidelity is a microcosm of the silent and not so silent battles raging in and around women's lives. Young Rasna wants to break free of the patriarchal bonds, Kamini and Sujata desire to be liberated from their stifling domestic existence. Naina has to muster the confidence to deal with the troubling revelation in her marriage. The stories take you into the heart of a woman's struggle and how she snatches victory from the jaws of subjugation and discrimination.
