The 'Women Behind' zine photo journal book, which has 76 photos in 100 pages, is about Eastern women struggling and suffering particularly from poverty and abuses. Many are starving, some are even living without adequate water. Many of them work as hard labours suffering hardship from abusive employers. Some has to obey chauvinistic rules from their predominant patriarchal societies. BEHIND in this books means they are falling behind in terms of time. Their true feelings are hidden and distorted behind from their veils. The smiling faces of many photos masquerade their enduring suffering and indignity.
