Paromita

Bol

Paromita, a modern educated girl, enters an arranged marriage expecting to enjoy the adventures her joint family brings. While she's accepted by everyone, she receives no love or respect from her educated husband. He's envious of her family background, her successes in society and begins to scar her reputation by shaming her. He vilifies her character by sowing the seeds of scandal. Although Paromita is hurt, she remains silent and withdrawn, seeing no reason to reveal her past. Paromita waits for the right time to separate from her husband, when a social scandal won't harm the family's name. Haunted by ghosts, she realizes she can't ignore the past that's beginning to affect her present life. What she'd thought insignificant had to be confronted, or the demons of scandal will run amok. She leaves everything and everyone, going into seclusion where the first step to healing begins. She writes her journal, exploring what caused her wound, why. and how to heal it. The fear of narcissistic envy and rage of a disordered personality had prevented her from living a normal life. Her seclusion reveals that by not submitting to social tradition she comes into her own feminine integrity. The respect she was previously denied as an inferior female, she now receives as a mature, wise woman.In this memoir, the author shares her journey into individuation and how she became conscious of herself, gaining her feminine strength to face the world around her.
