Voh, Kucch Jaani, Kucch Anjani  (Hindi, Paperback, Ismita Mathur Muskan)

Moving around on the wavering flowers of hopes and dreams, she desires to touch the rainbow, to get wet in the first shower of the first rain... In the milky moonlit night, she wants to stare at the bright Moon, with her beloved by her side. She hopes to have her arms and lap full of affection and love. Yet, life may not always be smooth sailing and often, such bubbling inner emotions, desires and feelings of a woman’s heart are betrayed by the harsh realities and unpredictability of the ups and downs of life. Be it, within the comforts of home or in a public place or a park or during a journey, occasionally, one comes across a woman, who under an outburst of emotions or perhaps trying to relieve the emotional pangs, suddenly throw opens her heart and shares, the memoirs of her happiness, sorrows, and anguish. The central character of the short stories presented inside, reflect such varied hues of womanhood, in the contemporary Indian milieu. A characterization of women, from different social strata and economic backgrounds, ever moving forward towards self-reliance and upliftment.
