Meri Kahani - My Story

Izaat's Kahani: Part 4, Chapter 2

Meri Kahani: My Story is a play adapted to an audiobook. This tapestry of monologues gives voice to often unseen layers of painful and taboo experiences of South Asian women. Delivered with poetic brilliance and an unflinching rawness, Meri Kahani delicately handles themes of forced marriage, sexual abuse, domestic violence, social expectations and inter-generational divisions. Pushing to the surface through the weight of these painful stories are examples of resilience, a longing for justice and an opportunity to heal through uncovering abuse hidden behind culture and silence.
