  1. Servants of the Goddess: The Modern-Day Devadasis &#8220Ahighly unusual and fascinating book, engrossing to the very end.&#8221&#8211Sonia Faleiro, author of Beautiful ThingServants of the Goddess weaves together the heartbreaking, yet paradoxically life-affirming stories of five devadasis--women, in the clutches of an ancient fertility cult, forced to serve the gods. Catherine Rubin Kermorgant sets out attempting to make a documentary film about the lives of present-day devadasis. Through her, we meet and get to know the devadasi women of Kalyana, a remote village in Karnataka. As they grow to trust Kermorgant and welcome her as an honorary sister, we hear their stories in their own words: stories of oppression and violence, but more importantly, of resistance and resilience. Kermorgant becomes a part of these stories and finds herself unwittingly enmeshed in a world of gender and caste bias which extends far beyond Kalyana -- all the way to Paris, where the documentary is to be edited and produced.Servants of the Goddess is a testament to women's strength and spirit, and a remarkably astute analysis of gender and caste relations in today's rural India. www.servantsofthegoddess.com
