The Complexity of Life Behind the Chador: Samina Ali's " Madras on Rainy Days"
Shabnam Niher
This book offers a close look at the way of life of Indian Muslims, their customs and traditions, rituals, beliefs and superstitions and the cultural conflicts and the communal disharmony faced by them in India. The emphasis in the narrative is on the harsh patriarchal traditions of the Muslim society in India. Set against the backdrop of the ancient walled city of Hyderabad and mounting Hindu-Muslim tensions, Madras on Rainy Days lyrically evokes the complexities of life behind the chador. A gorgeously written novel by an original new voice in international fiction.
