Widowhood is the marital status that a man or woman gains once his or her spouse has died. A widow is a woman whose spouse has died, and a widower is a man whose spouse died. Widowhood is one of the most deeply distressing life events experienced by adults, and it becomes more likely as people age. Water takes the most controversial issues like patriarchy, religion, corruption, widowhood, child prostitution and hidden love. The novel Water depicts the condition of widow’s in India where they are treated like animals.
