    ‘Title is Untitled’ is a unique social commentary, focused on the issue of rape and the social institutions that enable it in urban and rural India.

The authors tackle serious issues in a novel format, even throwing in a healthy dose of humor towards the end of the book.

    ABOUT BOOK

    “Title is Untitled” Be infants in Evil, but in your thinking be Adults – A Social Adult Book

    Highlights:  The River can be purified by an Action Plan; But What Action Plan can revive me? My name is Ganga and this is my Story – Title is Untitled.

    We believe Women are the glory of creature and book of facts blended with fiction to spread more awareness in our society. Facts about various problems in the present urban and rural societies of India are presented wrapped in fiction, like case studies to elaborate them. Women of our country are often victims to most issues like rape, marital rape, prostitution, child marriage, child trafficking and others. So, try to create a little awareness in our educated society.

    The question is – can we do something for them?

    We can at least be aware of the steps that lead to these sins and spread the awareness. We can try to stop people who sell young girls to brothels. We can stop marital rape in our own homes. Will we do so? Or just read the book and keep it in the shelf with a sigh?

    What do we intend to show through our Novel?

    Title is Untitled – The name itself says that this book is a subjective study. Readers are invited to bring their own subjectivity to the issues discussed in the novel. These issues are being interpreted in their own peculiar way, depending on the context and taboos. The interpretation of the authors can be assessed individually.

          The cover shows symbolic relations between these interpretations and the various pain points touched in the Novel.

    A woman has their own identity. However, society has been constantly redefining their identity and trying to communicate in different manner. These communications has been depicted by the letters which covers the women. Especially, covered private parts of women denote sexual abuse. The society is being denoted by a symbolic donkey in a human dress. The donkey is known to be a carrier and is not looked upon with respect. Society carries taboos and their unfulfilled desires and carries them all along; irrespective of the modernity hoax it wears.

          Everything in Indian society is grey. Nothing is black and white. This grey thinking denotes the justification for their beliefs and taboos, which society gives to ladies and everybody around.

    However, we need to address positive interpretation of the authors. Back cover with flowers, and two eyes, shows that authors are quite optimistic and are struggling to bring this issue in a positive manner. The future is here to blossom.
