Trade Paperback. Condición: Good. Sue Darlow Ilustrador. First Paperback Edition. Sita was born in a small village in northern India in 1958., the youngest daughter of a large family. From an early age Sita knew that her parents would one day choose a husband for her , that this was what they worked and prayed for and what she herself depended on for status and security in adulthood. But that day came sooner than she expected , and at the age of fifteen Sita left India to travel alone to England , where she met Nirmal , her future husband , for the first time. The marriage was a terrible , tragic mistake. Nirmal beat her and abused her , and forbade her the freedom and financial independence which she yearned for in order to establish frienda and self-dignity in her new country. Her health , vitality and confidence suffered dreadfully. By the age of nineteen she had two young children to care for as well . and it required a supreme effort of courage and determination for Sita to escape the marriage and begin life afresh as a single woman. Her story , simply and movingly told to her friend Rachel Barton , is a devastating account of the hidden suffering of a young Indian woman in contemporary Britain.This book has been read and there are light corner creases to the bottom corners.There is some mild shelf wear.
