The Daughters of Shantiniketan

Product Description

What happens when tradition suffocates love and freedom? Shantiniketan is the abode of one of Kolkata’s most revered aristocratic families, where Rabindranath Tagore’s legacy is upheld as a sacred doctrine, untouched by modern thought. However, patriarchal ideals reign supreme and the men of the family dictate the rules, women’s voices are suppressed, controlled or punished. But when the obedient granddaughter falls in love with a Bohemian singer who dares to modernize Tagore’s work, a storm of rebellion brews. Love clashes with tradition, and the family’s perfect façade begins to crack, revealing dangerous secrets and hidden truths. Will the daughters of Shantiniketan break free, or will the weight of the past crush their hopes? The Daughters of Shantiniketan is a riveting tale of forbidden love, generational struggles, defiance, and the fight for self-expression in a world defined by tradition.
