A fierce feminist manifesto that reframes seven traditionally condemned behaviors as necessary tools of resistance, blending memoir, reporting, and political analysis to challenge patriarchy, religious and social controls over women’s bodies and voices, and to urge women and girls worldwide to embrace transgressive courage and collective action to demand rights, dignity, and equality.

A searing diagnosis of national decline that argues corporate capitalism, militarism, and a corrupt political class have hollowed out democratic institutions and civic life; through reporting from deindustrialized towns, veterans, addicts, and displaced workers, it portrays social fragmentation, cultural decay, and the rise of authoritarian impulses, and calls for moral resistance, community rebuilding, and radical dissent to avert further collapse.

A collection of vivid travel reportage from the Indian subcontinent in the late 20th century, portraying a region riven by communal violence, political upheaval and social decay while capturing the lives of ordinary people caught in crises—from militant insurgencies and military rule to refugee crises and criminal underworlds. Through eyewitness scenes and interviews, the book sketches how ideological extremism, corrupt institutions and historical grievances reshape communities and daily life, yet also highlights moments of resilience, humor and human complexity amid chaos.
