Liberation: Breaking The Glass Ceiling Of Society
Every woman must jump over hurdles as she traverses through her life. All of us either knows a woman who has done so or is a woman herself who is doing so. At each stage of her life, a woman deals with multiple barriers that prevent her from striving to break the glass ceiling; of society and life. This treasure trove of heartfelt poetry and prose showcases many such instances in a woman’s life as she goes through daily life, deals with others’ perception of her and what she ‘should’ do, reminisces her past and dreams of a future she wants. A woman may be ecstatic or enraged, melancholy or blissful, as she dances through her life. Be it a real-life experience or anecdotal, this lovingly curated collection of poetry and prose will take you on a journey through a woman’s innermost thoughts and aspirations and the struggles and joys that come her way in this game of life.

` Liberation- breaking the glass ceiling of society ‘is close to my heart . It has stories, ruminations and experiences of women all over the world who broke and continues to transgress over barriers and glass ceilings.
Despite men being raised up in the modern gen, it has been drilled into them that a woman should be the one to compromise.In front of this slow drill, daughter/partner /sister love doesn’t stand a chance ( taken from ` Some dreams ‘ by Deepa Ragunanthan ). These men in the name of love, protection and care have succumbed to benevolent patriarchy not realizing the injustice they do but rationalizing their action in the pretext of TAKING CARE.When you see someone doing that ,please don’t shut up.Resist.Speak for yourself, smash patriarchy by standing up and voicing your opinion. Never ignore or feel that it is unnecessary and that things won’t change . Make it known that you can’t be commanded.
Now there is another category of men, who just can’t stand to see a woman being independent and doing better. Being a woman you have to go through wars with these kind of men, sometimes even women , society and finally within themselves.
Along the pages of these anthology, you see different shades of women( that’s the next anthology of them I am to reaa, can’t wait 🙈) you may feel empathetic to ,get inspired by, relate to and find a part of yourself in it. In each of these women, you see a spark that is capable of making you break the shell & become free.

After a very long -time finally i had a wonderful experience of reading this woman oriented book. Which talks about woman empowerment , tgeir beliefs , aspirations , dreams , thoughts , perceptions and many more things.
The language of the book is simple and understandable . Despite being written by many authors . Each and every poetry and prose has their own significance . You will feel the power of each and every word. Written with feelings and emotions of their beliefs .
The cover of the book is good. According to the theme of the book . Usually i dont read many anthologies . But this book definately changed my perception . Even the tagline " breaking the glass ceiling of society" . Is actually proved completly through the poetries which are capable of breaking societical norms .
Overall i must recommend this book to all . Who loves reading books reading woman empowerment and breaking streotypes of society .

Someday I will take some rest.
Someday when the burden is less.
Someday I will shed my tears.
Someday when the pain will grow less.
Someday I will have my cry, some day. ❤️
"Liberation- Breaking the Glass Ceiling of Society" is an anthology which talks about the multiple barriers that a women deals with.❤️
The book is divided into 6 parts, each containing heartfelt poetry and prose which showcases different instances in a women's life where she has to listen to other people and have to worry about what the society will think and how she has to deal with others' perception of what she should or shouldn't do. ❤️
Every piece in the book is beautifully penned and though it's an anthology all the pieces still feel connected to each other as if every writer is telling the same story of the struggles of a women. The book is not just about a single woman but it's about all of us. The book contains real life instances which will help you to connect to the story and learn better. This book has the power to impact your thoughts and help you to see more clearly through a woman's innermost thoughts and aspirations. It will help you to understand the struggles and joys a woman goes through in the journey of her life. ❤️
Though the book talks about some deep emotions and struggles but the easy going language used is a plus point which makes it fit for every reader. I highly recommend this book to everyone along with the book "Shades of a women" which is another such beautiful and inspiring book. ❤️
