Of Infidels and Infidelity is a collection of short stories in English, centered around the life of the modern Indian woman. Woman who is struggling to find her rightful place in the society, at her home, in the community, and at her workplace. A woman who wants to realize her aspirations, and give expression to her needs. These short stories in English are a microcosm of the silent and not so silent battles raging in and around women's lives.

Add a line about a story on marital relationship, from the book. The short stories in English take you into the heart of a woman's struggle and how she snatches victory from the jaws of subjugation and discrimination. They also dwell on the agonizing marital relationships in the Indian context and its acute sensitivities. A women's total submission is undoubtedly in the realm of the past. An engrossing read.
