"Sex worker are free in four respects. We don`t have to cook for a husband; we don`t have to wash his dirty clothes; we don`t have to ask for his permission to raise our kids as we deem fit; we don`t have to run after a husband claiming rights to his property." Fiery, outspoken and often wickedly funny, this candid account of one woman`s life as a sex worker in Kerala became a bestseller when it was first published in Malayalam. Nalini Jameela, who takes her name from both Hindu and Muslim traditions, worked as a child in the clay mines. She has been a wife, mother, successful business woman and social activist - as well as a sex worker - at different stages of her life. This Nalini Jameela`s story, told in her inimitably honest and down-to-earth style, of her search for dignity, empowerment and freedom on her own terms. ISBN - 8189975110
