Right Answer: Ente Katha

Kamala Das, who later wrote in Malayalam under the pen name Madhavikutty, first serialised her autobiography in Malayalam as ‘Ente Katha’, which literally means ‘My Story’. She subsequently rewrote it in English, and the English version appeared in 1976 under that translated title. The book created a sensation for its unflinching treatment of a woman’s emotional and sexual life within a conservative society, and it remains one of the most discussed autobiographies in Indian writing. Her poem ‘My Mother at Sixty-six’ is prescribed in the school syllabus.
