Returning thirty years later as the bureau chief for \u003cem\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/em\u003e, she found a vastly different country: one defined as much by aspiration and possibility--at least by the illusion of possibility--as it is by the structures of sex and caste. \u003cem\u003eThe End of Karma\u003c\/em\u003e is an exploration of this new India through the lens of young people from different worlds: a woman who becomes a Maoist rebel; a brother charged for the murder of his sister, who had married the \"wrong\" man; a woman who opposes her family and hopes to become a police officer. Driven by aspiration--and thwarted at every step by state and society--they are making new demands on India's democracy for equality of opportunity, dignity for girls, and civil liberties. Sengupta spotlights these stories of ordinary men and women, weaving together a groundbreaking portrait of a country in turmoil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"W. W.
