Book Synopsis The Second Nose and Other Stories by : Yashpal

Download or read book The Second Nose and Other Stories written by Yashpal and published by books catalog. This book was released on 2006 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories in this anthology, some of them appearing for the first time in English translation, seek to give a larger view of Yashpal as a short-story writer as well as provide a taste of his forthright approach to the questions of his times. Whether exploring the theme of the complicity of the ruled with the rulers, or the unquestioning supplication of human beings to a deity or faith, or social reform and social protest, the stories are coloured by the author's deep concern for the India he fought for and dreamt of. In a world weary of territorial strife, religious rancour and social iniquities, the stories are perhaps more relevant today than when they were written almost fifty years back.
