Description

Translated by Taslima Nasreen herself, the poems in All about Women reflect the passion which makes her a feminist, a staunch fighter for women’s rights and against religions fundamentalism and oppression against women. They speak for a broad and secular outlook. As she herself says in one of her poems. From now on let religion’s other name be humanity.

The poems in this collection have been translated from the original Bengali by the poet herself. The paintings included in the book are by Rabindranath Tagore.
