India Calling: The Memories of Cornelia Sorabji - Gyan Books
About The Book: India Calling: The Memories of Cornelia Sorabji (1934) is the autobiography of Cornelia Sorabji, India's first female barrister. Born in 1866, Sorabji was the first woman to graduate from Bombay University and the first to study law at Oxford University. In her memoir, she chronicles her journey from childhood in colonial India to her pioneering legal career. The book offers insights into her advocacy for purdahnashins—women secluded from public life—and her efforts to improve their legal and social status. Sorabji also reflects on her experiences navigating the complexities of colonialism, gender, and identity.
