The Auntology


Summary

The author reflects on the formidable aunts who serve as the true "command center" of her family, asserting their dominance over the men who occupy mere footnotes in her domestic history. Through vivid portraits of diverse personalities—ranging from the strict, pedagogical Aunt Selvi to the quiet, trailblazing Aunt Jalaja—the essay celebrates the wit, resilience, and strength of this powerful matriarchal lineage.
