Neha Bansal's Herstory published under the Navodaya scheme of Sahitya Akademi is a striking gender-sensitive anthology of 39 thoughtful verse-narratives which readers will enjoy and learn from. It is significant that Neha Bansal, a civil servant and a poet waves the flag, calling attention to the systematic and systemic gender injustice, manifest in myths, epics, and mainstream narratives. The binding theme of these 39 narrative poems, which the poet defines as "stories" encapsulate introspection and critical commentary about the systematic oppression of women.
