About this listen

Goli unveils the dark and oppressive world within the royal palaces of Rajasthan, where the women of the inner chambers face relentless exploitation and degradation. This powerful novel portrays the excesses, whims, and unchecked power of the kings, alongside their extravagance and tyranny. Through its vivid depiction of the inhumane treatment of women and the debauchery behind palace doors, Goli serves as both a scathing critique and a profound reflection on the cruelty and corruption within the feudal system.

Please note: This audiobook is in Hindi.

The story centers on the "Goli" system—a historical custom in princely India where illegitimate daughters or servant girls were raised essentially as property to serve the sexual and domestic whims of kings and feudal lords. The protagonist, Champa, is a Goli who struggles against a destiny written for her before birth. While she is forced to surrender her body to the King, her spirit and consciousness remain fiercely tied to her own identity and the harsh reality of her caste.

Unlike a dry history lesson, the audiobook feels like a confession.
