This book engages with the existing feminist scholarship on gender, nationalism and genocide to investigate the dominant representations of gender in the 1971 genocide in Bangladesh and juxtaposes the testimonies of survivors and national memory of that war to create a shift of perspective that demands a breaking of silence.

Azra Rashid is a filmmaker and postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Gender & Cultural Studies at the University of Sydney, Australia. Her research is focused on representations of gender in the existing discourses of nationalism and genocide.
