A Woman wheel of life [ Import Book ] Vasundhara Raje (Old Book)

This book is a portrait of modern day India through the eyes of Alexandra
Sanchez Gavito, a foreigner who came to the country two years ago as the
wife of Julio Faesler Carlisle, the Mexican Ambassador to India. She is
deeply interested in gender issues but, unfortunately, in India and
abroad, feminists tend to focus mainly on its most dramatic aspects. Very
little is said about what women have had to endure in male societies,
which usually categorize them as a specific sub caste. Forever focusing
on their trials and tribulations, however, we tend to ignore their
endeavors that have transformed many to archetypes of strength,
courage and creativity. Their deeds and achievements constitute a legacy
for future generations.
The author takes us by the hand on her personal “discovery” of the Indian
woman as Shakti, the everlasting female energy, without which the
world cannot find due order and balance.
