Media Reviews
Applying postcolonial theory to a wide range of feminist concerns, Rajeswari Sunder Rajan expertly addresses the problems of representing sensational events like rape and sati in Indian films and the popular press, as well as explores varieties of women's writing and the nature of women's political participation in today's India. Her book is a passionate work of Indian feminism in which a sense of the past imaginatively informs contemporary analysis.
