What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
An empowering novel of resistance inspired by Sampat Pal and the Pink Sari Gang from the multi-award-winning author of Run, Rebel and The Crossing
Rizu lives a comfortable life in the gated middle class suburbs of Delhi; her biggest worries are getting her homework done and keeping up with the mean girls at school. That is, until she’s accused of being a witch and the hysteria that follows triggers a chain reaction that ends in tragedy and life as she knew it changes forever.
Alone and fearing for her life, Rizu runs away and joins a group of pink sari wearing, stick wielding women, known for their revenge vigilantism. Together they can help Rizu take back her life and seek justice against those who wronged her.
But at what cost?
‘Singes and sings with a freedom fighting spirit, written in verse that flows with humanity’ Sita Brahmachari, author of Where the River Runs Gold
