“[A]n important contribution to scholarship on feminism, and on South Asia more generally…. One of the great strengths of this volume is that insightful and sustained critique is consistently accompanied by attention to the possibilities for South Asian feminisms opened up when we listen to the voices of those who have been silenced and marginalized.”
