Thanks for this post! I'm writing a memoir about being a Hyderabadi Muslim - while there are some similarities with "A Place for Us" by Fatima Farheen Mirza, body image and mother/womanhood are additional themes I explore.
Lesbians. I write about lesbian literature & feminism, and have really struggled with finding lesbian South Asian stories. I'm meeting with a professor next week (who teaches a class on LGBTQI+ topics in Asia) - working to rectify this shortcoming.
