One hundred years later, Hajra, a Pakistani scholar, is forced to flee to New York City from her home in Peshawar after witnessing a violent act meant to target her. She loses herself in academic research until she comes face-to-face with a photo of a laughing, defiant young woman brandishing a banner in protest. Inexorably drawn to this woman, Hajra travels to South Africa to learn more and unknowingly traces Sita's path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith raw imagery and rich sensory detail, Roohi Choudhry's incandescent debut novel \u003ci\u003eOutside Women\u003c\/i\u003e intertwines the narratives of two women painfully yet valiantly carving their existences outside of patriarchal and colonial spaces as they search for kinship and strength in solidarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"University Press of Kentucky","offers":[{"title":"Outside Women | Roohi Choudhry | Hardcover | 9781985901964 | New | Fiction 1764959","offer_id":49361094213784,"sku":"1764959","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81rYuqHwpYL.jpg?v=1782831766","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/outside-women","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
