An evocative collection of eleven essays, Girls Who Said Nothing & Everything navigates the tumultuous journey of self-discovery, shame, and love within a dysfunctional family in 90s India.
Through candid insights and humour, Meera Vijayann reflects upon the deep-seated generational trauma that shapes the lives of Indian women. From public humiliation after a horrific accident in third grade to the confusion and anxiety caused by parental discord, money, and young love, each essay delicately unravels the multifaceted experiences of Indian girlhood.
This debut essay collection stands as a powerful testament to resilience, offering young Indian women a voice to express their deepest emotions, and ultimately, encourages them to see their grief, joy, shame, love, sexuality, and rage as human.
