The Girls Ate Last
Bok av Supriya Singh
This book tells the story of Inder Kaur, an Indian woman
growing up in the early 20th century. Girls were expected to
eat last after the men and boys, and were often given only
a few years of schooling. It is a story of women that is still
repeated. With a Year 8 education, Inder Kaur, the author's
mother, turned the Partition of India into a personal victory.
Having to seek employment in Delhi, she educated herself
one step at a time, as her marriage disintegrated, to become
the founding principal of three women's colleges.
