Requirements: .ePUB reader, 262kb
Overview: There is little doubt that Manoj Das is a great storyteller of the subcontinent and he had too few peers, no matter what yardstick is applied to measure his ability as an artist, wrote the noted critic A. Russell, some decades ago.
While the secret of this great storyteller is his insight into the mysteries of the human psyche, the two other outstanding characteristics that have secured for him the status of a legend in his country are his masterly handling of the Indian ethos and his spontaneous blithe style.
Out of about two hundred short stories of his, we present in this volume a selection of twenty that are marked by light humour and very humane satire. Compilations of the other varieties are to follow.
