About this listen
In Womanhood, Tahmina Begum intimately traces the lives of three women across eight years - each living at a crossroads, each shaped by the contradictions and richness of their heritage, each weighing the cost of being a good woman.
Noor longs for a marriage that mirrors the loyalty of her parents' world and the openness of her own. After a long negotiation between her heart and faith, she has decided to leave the man who is perfect in all ways but one.
Khaira, once the girl in bedazzled jeans and heeled sandals, is twenty years into a life she built at great cost. Expectations written long before her birth have shaped her into someone she no longer recognises.
Moumita strives to be a modern independent woman, even as tradition tugs at her. When a beloved friendship fractures, she begins to ask whether independence is freedom - or another kind of sacrifice.
Together their stories reveal what it means to be a woman today, that love demands courage, and that the most essential journey we take is always the one back to ourselves.©2025 Tahmina Begum
