Description

This book is a collection of 21 delightful short stories by Punjabi writers, selected and translated by India's most widely read writer, Khushwant Singh. Some of the plots are utterly contrived yet manage to portray Punjabi character and the tragedy of partition. No other short stories or novels can boast to convey this theme in so short a space and with such intense poignancy.
