Calling the Shots by P. Nair PDF Summary

Book Description: "Calling the Shots" reflects many moods and themes. Many of the poems in this book highlight personal experiences. Two things have spurred me on to write, perhaps with indignation: According to court decisions, when I was divorced in Singapore, I was allowed access to my only son, who meant the world to me and whom I had nurtured with so much love even as he was growing in my womb. Seventeen years is a long time for a mother to be separated from her only child. *After 13 years I remarried - this time to a US citizen of Indian origin. Based solely on trust, I left a comfortable life, gave up a good job, my family and friends and burnt my bridges to join him in the US. However, less than two weeks after I arrived here, the nightmare began and it became stark clear to me that there was absolutely no love or even kindness in the person I had married. Totally lost in a strange environment, finding myself all alone in a country where I had no family or friends to fall back on, I spent three weeks in a women's shelter. Some thoughts are best expressed in one's native language. I would have liked to call this book "Velluvili," meaning 'Challenge' in my native language, Malayalam. However, as "Calling the Shots" appeared to transcend language barriers, it seemed to be the better choice.
