No Woman’s Land: Women from Pakistan, India & Bangladesh Write on the Partition of India
“…[W]omen’s history has a dual goal: to restore women to history and to restore our history to women. Since the historical archive has so little to offer in terms of women’s experience, a greater emphasis on gender is undeniably a great asset. Menon’s purpose in this book is to examine memories of Partition from the perspective of women…their trauma and dislocation, particularly the way it affects their functioning today.”
—Tribune; March 2005
“This book should be read by all, including…historians, who tend to forget the gender factor in history. To understand the partition of our subcontinent and the role of different strata of our society, one should listen to the stories of those who experienced partition brutally.””
—Dawn; May 2005
