Social norms and traditions have the unfortunate centre stage in cultures of the Sub-continent. These cultural traditions have killed the dreams of many young and vibrant girls in India. The patriarchal system chains women in these cultural norms to keep them a slave to these and cave to it. The book “Deified” authored by Bhanu Srivastav is a unique take on the fate of Indian women and how they are chained by family and cultural norms to endure abuse in the name of honour of family and marriage.
The novel takes you through the journey of one such girl Sanvi. Her fate would look the same as any other Indian girl but it will all change one day. Married off to a man who didn’t accept her and abused her, left alone with one of her two children and asked to leave the house, all of this seems very run of the mill, right? It is what happens afterwards that makes this novel one of its kind.
