About this listen

Laltain Bazaar is Meera’s neighborhood where she grows up. The market is filled with working girls, and Meera’s mother is one of them. While Meera may have been born there, she and her mother want to escape this reality to lead a normal life.

Written in the backdrop of the emergency in 1977, the novel is a narrative of Meera’s ill treatment at the hands of her in-laws and her returning back to her mother’s home. Her circumstances do not crack Meera, and she ultimately decides that she will build up her own world.

As touching as the story is by writer Anamika, it is a personal, discreet account of a woman in our society. The novel was first published in 1983 under the title Par Kaun Sunega. By popular demand, the novel has now been republished under the name Latain Bazaar.

Please note: This audiobook is in Hindi.
