'The weave of my life' by Urmila Pawar

The Weave of my life by Urmila pawar

  

•           Review about Weave of my life
•            As we studies about Indian writing in English in many Indian writers and his works. We know that Indian literature has to gives so many ideas between real Indian images. Here I review about ‘Weave of my life’ is English translated version, wandana sonalkar. The original title of Urmila pawar’s memoir is ‘Aaydan’, a word from the local dialect spoken in the village that forms background of her life.  Aaydan is the name for the cane basket that her mother wove to sell for additional income for the family. We know that before independence in India people how behavior in our society, and Indian in caste has to first and our religious and culture based to caste.  We see that Weave of my life is translated version and this novel original title is, it takes us from her childhood memoirs of life in the village, and her mother’s constant struggle to make ends meet and we see that Urmila’s life has to face so many problems an how society became react them and also we see that in novel her married life at so many learns them she is. Where she encounters a feminist group and later becomes a writer and organizer of Dalit women. In after independence, in India dalit are marginalized one and there social status is no more. In Urmila pawar’s writing there is plenty of the ordinary and every day, and a temporality that goes back and forth from her own childhood to episodes in the life to her mother and her elder brothers and sisters and black. Urmila’s most of writing how Dalit autobiographic play   down the role of the narrator subject, and her narrator in Indian religious and pandian also refers to this. We see that Urmila’s writing in dalit women status and how society has to mention that Dalit is backward people. This trajectory is not the essential narrative line in a book whose title is a better metaphor for the writing techniques that Urmila pawar adopts. We know that in our Indian religious has caste base and how leave people has to different way,  in novel Urmila’s family members of her family, her husband family, her neighbors and classmates are woven together  in a narrative that gradually reveals different aspects of the everyday life of Dalits, the manifold ways in which caste itself and grinds them down.           

           In novel ‘Aaydan’ pawar’s point of view is also woven from two stands: that of the young girl uncomprehending witnessing instance of caste it injustice, patriarchal domination, and the daily compulsion of poverty. We know that the mature women looking back on these with the insights she has gained later on in her life. And yet the narrator’s position is neither center nor distanced it is constantly engaged. We find that sonalkar says that to pawar’s ideas and how she is face to problems in society. She said that in novel is not teleological, but a language of effect opens up a space for moral and political appeal to the upper castes. The burden of caste is thus returned to the upper castes. Pawar’s memoir follows in this genres what is different is that and we see that how dalit women problems, becomes poor, caste different, gender different etc. she approach her subject both as a writer with some literary work in women accomplished to her works and they tried to organize dalit women and has a specific stance on Dalit feminist.

                                                 

          The weave of my life begins with a detailed described of the harsh landscape of the Konkan region on the west coast of India and the religious there Dalit women their own lives harsh and full of toil, have with this landscape. We see that in pawar gives her own example and how her mother is became widow, and society has rigidity at family members, society, caste,  own town at all in see them.  In novel we know that the main crop is rice, the poor grow a form of red millet that thrives on the thin soil, but there also fruits that are natives to the region and in different of cloths, food etc in society. The women walk in a group accompanied by their children for how can they leave them behind and who will look after them back in the village? And we see that gossip among them as they climb the hills, along thorny paths, buffeted by strong winds. 

            We see that pawar is now a well known writer in Marathi language, her work consists mainly of short stories and history of the role of women in the movement for the emancipation of the Dalits, and how society reacts to dalit women and untouchable.  In India after Ambedkar’s conversion in 1956, before his death Dalits all over the state followed him in giving up the worship of Hindu gods and goddesses. She gives example to Ambedkar has leader of Harijan community and in India dalit movement came at present time.

·       Dalit movement in novel

During independence in India many writers, readers wrote in dalit literature like that R.K. Narayan, Urmila pawar, Mulkraj  anand, Amedkar etc. in dalit movement in most of Dalits join them and Ambedkar  gives their new name ‘Harijan’. Most of the problem is poverty, out caste, down trodden, enslaved and untouchable to Dalits people. In many for the writing in the poor dalit people are most of that society economically backward. This movement in many Dalits writer voice against to rich alit class people and Dalits has to educated and their know that to Dalits are became fight and stats their own social status in society. Most of that dalit are poor and rich, Brahmins are not touch them and all Dalits leave in outside o town or the villages.

 So we know that our society has to marginalize this people and no one can argue them. Here this novel is best example to how our society has to treat to Dalits and goes on happing in ancient time their only work bad, rottenness in our society. Pawar’s childhood, social life and her married life also she face so many untouchable and Nero minded people in their life and she gives so many example and how people see that she is became Dalits women, and her mother, brother, her husband and how society becomes rigidly in their mind. 

So we conclude that pawar’s memories can be read for their deep insight into caste as it is lived by the Dalits. Its small culture of resistance that help to make the ever-present pain to unaccountably more bearable. Her own experiences of caste discrimination are narrated with an interweaving of humor or with wry asides of self deprecation.
