Originally hailing from New Delhi, India, Purva Grover’s deeply personal new book She is a tale of a now 40-year-old, who knew she wanted to spend her life writing and narrating stories when she was five. Purva Grover has been writing for 17 years, professionally, and scribbling passionately in her notebooks since she learnt the alphabet; she wrote her first book at 15 in a diary picked up at the supermarket, which she still has and is not embarrassed about.
She is about female empowerment from a vantage point that has to date not widely been discussed. It’s not about male-bashing or bra-burning topics; it is a celebration of being a woman. If we have learned anything from the past, it is that liberation, inclusivity, and unity come through acceptance and celebrating our differences.
“In the pages, we celebrate waxing woes and bad hair days, we tick the boxes and break the rules, and we apologise for getting old and feel guilty when promoted at work. We speak of unwanted advice, as we offer some too. We sigh, smile and scorn. We observe, absorb, judge and compare. We own our space.” – Purva Grover, Author.
Available from Amazon.com, from £2.19-£11.65.
