South Asia Women's Forum and SAWNET

A site called South Asia Women's Forum has posted my review of Yuva.

It's a nice site... Check out the editorials by Sunny Singh especially. I like her analysis of the recent elections (even though she is a BJP supporter), and her accounts of life in Spain (also see: this) and Rome.

This piece, on Mumbaiyya/Bombaiyya, the slang spoken in Bombay, is also interesting.

It's not only a political or feminist site. It's more of a general, Indian women's lifestyle site. I gravitate towards the politics... Navigating the site is a little tricky -- searchability would help!

Incidentally, another excellent site is SAWNET (South Asia Women's Network). They have a famous email listserv, for women only as I understand it. The part of the site I've found most helpful is the "Who's Who" page, as there are helpful bios of a number of important women writers of South Asian origin there.
