The Home and the World
Authorship not stated
Nikhil has hired tutors for his wife and refused the obedience other men admire; now he asks her to leave the inner rooms and hear a political meeting with no screen between her and the hall. Outside, the partition of Bengal has filled the road with flags, and imported cloth burns in the courtyard. You play Bimala, choosing where to sit and whether to answer Sandip, who is already calling her the voice of the nation.
