I’m also speaking on the book in conversation with @alkapande at the Apeejay Kolkata Literary Festival at 7pm on Sunday the 11th. All welcome!

[Savie Karnel @SavieKarnel]

We discussed two resilient women - Laxmi Panda, an INA Spy, and Dr Kadambini Ganguly, India's first practicing doctor. Both went against the tide in their time and continue to inspire us.

Had a wonderful discussion with Madhurima Vidyarthi at the Apeejay Kolkata Literary Festival 's Oxford Junior Lit Fest today. The audience which was mainly children was interactive with many questions. Do check out our books, Laxmi Panda, and The School For Bad Girls.

Thankful to my publisher Vidhi Bhargava and Westland Books for taking Laxmi's story to the world.
