This book, Links In The Chain is a collection of eleven incisive and insightful essays, on the plight of the Indian woman written by the celebrated Hindi poet Mahadevi Varma, recipient of the Padma Bhushan and Bhartiya Jnanpith Award. Priestess of the Chhayavadi School of poetry, Mahadevi Varma was also a prose writer par excellence. These translated essays examine the inequitable situation of the Indian woman from various perspectives and cover several parameters of the Indian woman's status ranging from the cultural and historical to the economic, civic, educational and legal. Written in the 1930s, they continue to be relevant even in the modern context.
