Hellfire by Leesa Gazi
In this gripping novel, the lives of two sisters, Lovely and Beauty, unfold within the confines of their Dhaka home, where they have been sheltered and controlled by their domineering mother for over four decades. As the story progresses, the sisters grapple with their suppressed desires and the haunting memories of their past, leading to a dramatic confrontation that forces them to confront their deepest fears and longings. The narrative delves into themes of familial duty, the quest for personal freedom, and the complex dynamics of love and control within a traditional family structure.
