GREATEST KASHMIRI STORIES EVER TOLD /Selected and Translated by Neeraj Mattoo - 1 - New Delhi Aleph Book Company 2022/01/01 - 164
The Greatest Kashmiri Stories Ever Told spans almost a century of work by some of the finest writers of short fiction in the language. The storytellers included here range from the earliest practitioners of the craft of short story writing—Dinanath Nadim, Somnath Zutshi, Ali Mohammad Lone—to more contemporary writers like Dheeba Nazir. Some stories in this collection are realistic dramas that hold up a startlingly clear mirror to society, such as Sofi Ghulam Mohammads 'Paper Tigers, or lay bare the pain of losing ones homeland, as Rattan Lal Shant does in 'Moss Floating on Water. Then there are others like Ghulam Nabi Shakirs 'Unquenched Thirst and Umesh Kauls 'The Hearts Bondage, that look beyond the exterior and focus on the complex inner lives of the women of Kashmir. Selected and translated by Neerja Mattoo, the twenty-five stories in this volume, all born out of the Kashmiri experience, will resonate with readers everywhere.
