A review by atsundarsingh
Coolie Woman: The Odyssey of Indenture by Gaiutra Bahadur

challenging dark emotional informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

5.0

I don't know how to evaluate this book except to say that in many ways, it makes my work possible. This is the kind of story that makes family members open up about their experiences and reflections, and that makes "common" people, regular people remember their story matters. Importantly also, Bahadur writes with an eye to what is impossible to know. 

I cried reading this. It is important to my work, and my heart. It will never not be on my shelf.
