Another specialty of the book is the analysis of all the characters of the great epic Ramayana by Sita. In her analysis, she realized that a person can't be magnanimous even if he is born in a royal family. This has been described with examples of Rakshasa dynasty where high minded soul like Trijata, Sarama, etc. could realize Sita's mental pain and agony.
At last, the author describes how Sita wishes to be the wife of Rama through all her lives in spite of having spent greater part of her life in exile bearing the grief, annoyance and poverty, which had changed her to a completely different woman.
Since Ramanaya bears a special place in the heart of every Indian as a sacred epic, much research was needed to be done before setting off to write a novel based on it. I had to be very careful, in particular not to misinterpret any information. It was also because Ramayana as an epic bears significance not only for the Indian culture but also the whole world. So there were no boundaries to my cautiousness.
Ramayana bears the reference to many different characters, each with distinguished personalities. Selecting one partucular female character among them to analyze and depict character of many others was in fact very intimidating in the beginning. However my courage and inspiration came from the words of Shri Homen Borgohain, a distinguished novelist and journalist from Assam and also the editor of a leading Assamese news paper "Amar Asom".
It was a matter of great honor and pride for me when one of the most distinguished personel involved with the literature of Ramayana, Dr. Indira Goswami asked me to make an English translation of my novel, at a time when it was being published as a serial in the Assamese daily "Amar Asom".
