Indian women rarely live alone in their native country. Rarer still is the Indian woman who chooses to live alone in India. It is unusual for an Indian lady to choose to live alone in India when both of her parents reside in the same city. Sumaa checks all the boxes for the rarest of breeds, joining a small group of newly formed single-person households in the nation: she is a woman, she is unmarried, and she is "beyond her prime." This book is a contemplative and an honest view on the culture and politics of an Indian woman living alone during her thirties. The only proposals she receives when her youth wanes and her biological clock runs out of juice are the building committee welfare bids for her preferred apartment elevation, paint colour, and furniture style.
