About this document
The Road: Feminist Struggles in Pakistan by Muhammad Ahmad is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The poem "The Road" by Hina Faisal Imam highlights the struggles of married women in Pakistani society. It describes how these women have their emotions, desires, and freedoms restricted by their husbands and confinement to the home. Though they may appear well-dressed and provided for materially, inside they are sorrowful and longing to have their voices heard. The poem uses symbolic language like the road and four pillars of stone to represent the lack of independence and emotional imprisonment of women.
