  • "Stories of Muslim lives in India"

http://schema.org/description

  • ""This comprehensive anthology of short stories explores Muslim lives and inter-community relationship in the Indian subcontinent. By sensitizing readers to the multicultural reality of Muslim society it effectively dismantles the notion of a homogenized and inalienable Muslim identity and experience, a notation that does not take into account the complex and lived realities of India's more than 100 million Muslims. Selected from at least twelve Indian languages, the short stories in this volume cover almost the entire twentieth century, and include writers like Saratchandra Chatterjee, Premchand, Ismat Chughtai, Vaikom M Basheer, N S Madhavan, Anand and Jayanta De, Ashfaq Ahmad, Abdul Bismillah, Fakir M Katpadi and Thoppil M Meeran. An authentic social document, this volume will appeal to the general reader as well as historians and those interested in Indian literature."--Book cover."
