A Bhojpuri drama about women’s oppression in a male-dominated society, addressing female foeticide, sati, purdah and equal property rights.
Written during World War II while its author was imprisoned in Hazaribagh, this four-act play imagines a communist village where everyone is equal, wealth distinctions disappear, labor is honored, and the community has the facilities it needs. Batuk is the central character.
