When I hit you, or, A portrait of the writer as a young wife / Meena Kandasamy. by Kandasamy, Meena. Atlantic Books, 2017. Call #: FICTION KAN Subjects College teachers -- Fiction.   Marital conflict -- Fiction.   Abused wives -- Fiction.   Women -- Violence against -- Fiction.   India -- Social conditions -- Fiction. ISBN:  9781786491268 (hc.) Alternate title:  Portrait of the writer as a young wife Description:  249 p. ; 21 cm. Summary:  Seduced by politics and poetry, the unnamed narrator falls in love with a university professor and agrees to be his wife, but what for her is a contract of love is for him a contract of ownership. As he sets about reducing her to his idealised version of a kept woman, bullying her out of her life as an academic and writer in the process, she attempts to push back a resistance he resolves to break with violence and rape. "When I Hit You" is a dissection of what love meant, means and will come to mean when trust is undermined by violence. Genre:  Psychological fiction. Domestic fiction.
