Jorasanko by Aruna Chakravarti
I first heard of this novel in a BooksOnToast show on their YouTube channel. And I'm so glad I did.
Spanning four generations of Tagore (Thakur) family in Bengal, from 1823 to 1902, this book is a very unique experience. It is especially the life stories of the daughters-in-law and the daughters of the Tagore family - their world and their perspectives.
