I watched as the father broke the news to his daughter. The alliance for her marriage had been rejected yet again. I observed dispassionately as she ran into her room and flung herself on the bed, sobbing bitterly. She was doomed to suffer that way. After all, she had committed one of the most abominable sins for a young girl.

"We have a book table there," he explained, "and book distribution should be good."

When I arrived I was amazed there were thousands of people there! This is a pred
