There is a Light That Never Goes Out

With the issue of male on female violence more timely than ever, Saurav Dutt's harrowing new book delves deep into the issues of psychological and physical domestic abuse through the experiences of three women. All of these women have a past. Theirs is a past punctuated by abominable acts perpetrated by their partners against them. They escaped this whirlwind of abuse and torment in order to turn the page, to reload and to start their lives again. But the past has a way of catching up to them in ways they could never have imagined. The darkness of their experiences has cast a long shadow over their families, their future, the entire reason for their existence. The choices they make now will either set them free or put everything they seek to protect in harm's way once again. With striking forewords by human rights campaigners Mandy Sanghera and Polly Harrar, 'There is a light that never goes out' is an uncomfortable but necessary journey into the darkness of the human pysche and details an aspect of abuse and gender inequality that is more pressing now that it has ever been.
