An Evening In Lucknow
Kohli Suresh - Abbas K. a.
Harper Perennial
9789350291023
Product Description
In this collection Abbas brings forth through his stories his rich background in journalism and film-making. The stories here embrace varied themes and contexts with protagonists from cities and villages. Abbas manages to capture the dilemmas of all his characters be it a has been Nawab a nurse or an untouchable in a village. He addresses themes of superstition caste and romance each in his own unique and rich style of writing. He writes with equal felicity of a modest young proofreader in Mumbai vying for the attention of a European girl ('The Umbrella') and Chanda an outcaste old woman in a village ('Sword of Shiva'). Often satirical and hard-hitting the stories give the reader a glimpse into Abbas's social conscience and perhaps his commitment to progressive causes. This special edition comes with a PS section that has interviews with the author a letter from Mulk Raj Anand and other information that makes it a must-buy for connoisseurs of early Indian writing in English.
