Coolie Woman: The Odyssey of Indenture by Gaiutra Bahadur

4.0

Riveting, engaging and accessible, this is story of Indian female indentured labour in Guyana. The story was sparked by the writer's family history and is an incredible read for anyone interested in the history of migration, history of women or just an incredible story of women who would otherwise be forgotten. Arguably it raises more questions than it could have possibly hoped to answer - but that, in my opinion is the point of history - to start and continue the conversation.
