Confined within the permanent state of internalized lockdown, that is as much, economic, emotional, psychological, as much as, it is physical, it is only now over the past couple of decades that women and trans communities across classes and cultures have begun "transgressing" the Lakshman Rekha by walking out of violent homes and taking control over their own lives. The stories in this book were basically, South Asian response, to the Corona lockdown days. The writer focuses on the agonies and pains of the people from the viewpoint of a man dwelling in Kolkata in stories after stories, which he wrote during the lockdown days and from direct experiences of people around him.
