It frequently pushes the boundaries of reality, builds on the power of imagination, embraces boundless human potential, and invites readers to venture beyond the confines of their social and cultural conditioning.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis comprehensive book offers a systematic exploration of Indian women's science fiction.
