The Newlyweds: three couples who risked everything for love /Mansi Choksi - 1st ed. - UK: Viking by Penguin Random House, 2022. - xiii, 304 p. :

Zigzagging through India and its smorgasbord of cultures, each chock-full of its own unwritten commandments and sanctions, Choksi introduces our brave newlyweds. First, there’s the lesbian couple forced to flee for a chance at a life together. Then there’s the Hindu woman and Muslim man who escaped their families under the cover of night after being harassed by a violent militia group. Finally, there’s the inter-caste couple doing everything to avoid the horrifying fate of a similar duo murdered for choosing to love.
