![]() ![]() When Amrita loses her mother at the age of ten, this sense of renunciation comes to haunt her. Amrita writes, “The most remarkable thing about father was that a life of riches or renunciation came alike to him.” The latter had chosen a life of renunciation as a child Sadhu, but one glance at Raj Bibi changes all that, and they are married. The reasons for their parting and how it affects their two children are covered.Īmrita writes of her parents, Raj Bibi and Kartar Singh. Her early marriage to Pritam Singh ends in a divorce. The book touches on her life with Imroz, a painter with whom she has a live-in-relationship at a time when such things were far from the norm. Rather, it provides wonderful insights into the mind of a woman poet who was far ahead of her time, in both her thinking and how she conducted her life. The autobiography (first published in 1977 published in English translation in 2015) doesn’t follow a linear style. She wrote in Punjabi and Hindi, and her work has long been loved by readers in both India and Pakistan. Pritam was born in an area that was then British India, now part of Pakistan. Credit must be given to the English translator, Krishna Gorowara, who seems to have picked up on all the nuances and depth of Amrita’s thoughts. When choosing the name for her autobiography, Amrita recalled this banter and opted for this name. So it’s surprising that her autobiography is just under two hundred pages, and it’s curious why she chose this particular title - The Revenue Stamp.īehind the name is the exchange between Amrita and the famous author and journalist, Khushwant Singh, who told her that her life was of so little consequence that it could be written on the back of a revenue stamp (‘ Raseedi Ticket’ in the original).
