"As a woman, I have over the years gathered many incidences around other women. Some left me intrigued and some simply shocked me. As we move into the 21st century its time to start a dialogue around these difficult subjects, if not change society...at least make a dent in it! Women readers are heavily impacted by ‘Light’ as they can see a reflection of truth and society in the many narratives. And the title description – A bit of fact, a bit of fiction is justified! Readers especially women like the stark depiction, and the need for open conversations around topics ranging from child-abuse to unequal status in marriages, financial exploitation, early marriages, women’s health and widow status in modern India."
