SOME CHOICES DON'T BREAK YOU. THEY REVEAL YOU.
The
COMING
of AGE
of a
Woman
YATENDRA CHANDRA
READ AN EXCERPTThere are years of a marriage that no one talks about — the ones after the vows have settled into routine, and before a woman decides who she is willing to become. The Coming of Age of a Woman lives in those years.
Told across thirty-seven months in two parts, it follows a woman's slow, searching negotiation between duty and self-discovery — between the life she agreed to and the one she cannot stop imagining. It is contemporary literary fiction written for adult readers, and contains explicit content.
It is not a book about escape. It is a book about reckoning.
PART I
MONTHS 16–22
A woman. Two lives.
One truth she finally claimed.
PART II
MONTHS 23–37
Love. Freedom. Choices.
The price of becoming yourself.
" She saw him standing there long before he could see her. She had the window seat and her tears had not stopped since he left the coach. He was standing with forlorn eyes, and when he saw her, his eyes brightened. Instinctively she put her hand out and it met the glass, and she left her palm there, flat against it. Their eyes met for a little more than a second. He smiled. She tried to."
