The New Indian Express Chennai
|July 20, 2025
"My autobiography will be ready by December. I've been through a lot, I'll say it there," she said to much laughter, while speaking to the audience at the Kiran Nadar Museum of Art, on her first visit to Delhi after returning from London with the 2025 International Booker prize.
UNFEELING husbands. Brothers who want to rob sisters of their inheritance. Mothers expected to be responsible for their daughters' secular and religious education while doing full-time jobs. With powerful stories and characters like these, Heart Lamp has brought home the honours, but writer-activist Banu Mushtaq is yet to say the last word on patriarchy.
