Talata, the Child Bride
A promising schoolgirl is forced to abandon her education to be married off to an elderly man when she is only twelve years. She becomes pregnant and develops complications during childbirth because she is not fully developed to carry a pregnancy and deliver a baby. This intriguing story exposes the reader to the realities of this unacceptable practice. The devastating consequences of child marriage (a major one being obstetric fistula) are brought to light in this story.
