Leela feels helpless when she's widowed at thirteen- custom says she can't leave her house in rural India for an entire year. Despite her confinement, Leela finds her world expanding greatly when a kindly teacher begins tutoring her and making her read the newspaper every day. Soon Leela is engrossed in the political struggles led by Gandhi. But in order to join Gandhi's movement to speak out against oppression, Leela must first find her own voice.
