When one is living in a time when division in society has been normalized, reading a novel that transports you to an era where the country had almost discovered its almost singular identity is a treat in and of itself. Now add a queer and feminist point of view to the table and watch people stand up and take notice. That is exactly what translator and scholar, Ruth Vanita attempts to do in her second novel, A Slight Angle.
