This novel focuses on the oppression, the emotional struggles and sacrifices made by women in a patriarchal society with its moral judgments and how these cause tensions to develop between the sexes. While attacking existing customs and traditions and forcing the reader to question these beliefs, Sharatchandra’s novel also psychologically analyses the workings of the female mind and the intricacies of the human behaviour. In addition to this, the novel also successfully shatters stereotypes around women, questioning why they are paradoxically worshipped like goddesses and treated like slaves-why the discrimination and inequality?
