Dance to my tunes is written by Tanvi Sinha
and it comprises of 18 short stories. Stories that are pragmatic in expressing
the ordeal women faces in our male dominant society. The stories revolve around
how convoluted the lives of women are balancing between responsibility social
stigma. While the stories will restore your belief in happy ending and a few will
leave you pondering on this social imbalance and the price and amount of
sacrifice a lady puts in for mere existence and survival. I have read a few
reviews recommending every woman to read it, I would rather suggest every man
should read this book for a better understanding of the injustice and they can
be a bit diligent in their approach. The best thing about this book is that the
stories features women from all works of life and they are the sole driving
factors of the story. Few protagonists defying the fallacy of being week and
dependent while few breaking the invisible barriers of society. These stories tell
about the social exploitation body shaming domestic violence stigma
discrimination. Sometimes even women telling other women that it cannot be done.
The story also tells us about the invisible chain and prison society builds
around women to contain them and to diminish their spirit. The stories
successfully portraits the vivid emotions raw and brutal.
Tanvi has written about things that are
taboo and generally brushed aside. Her story telling is acrid and makes us
introspect whether we are tyrant or just another human being. Tanvi’s past
blogging experience can easily recon with this quintennial work with Dance To
my tunes.
A good read!
