On 20 June 2018, our editors Arcopol Chaudhuri, Sohini Basak and Swati Daftuar did a LIVE on the topic ‘Women Writing Women’. If you’re someone looking to diversify your reading list, here are all the books they recommended.

You can tell the truth and be ostracized, ridiculed, harassed—even driven to suicide, as happens regularly in universities.
