Krishna Sobti's lively, unapologetic portrayal of a married woman who brooks no limits to her sexuality is as compelling, pertinent and provocative today as when it first shook the Hindi literary world in 1966. Katha presents another masterpiece from one of the most spirited writers of our times. Mitro Marjani was not a writer's story ... I was amazed at the surprises Mitro gave me at every turn. Brought up outside the walls of patriarchy ... Mitro is her mother's daughter who can voice her desires and get away with it. She has no inhibitions about talking of things tabooed by tradition. She really impressed me .- Krishna Sobti
