This book by Krishan Chander features ten of his selected short stories. The opening story, “Aadhe Ghante ka Khuda,” explores love and class conflict. In “Do Farlaang Lambi Sadak,” the theme is social irony, while “Ek Tawaif ka Khat” gives voice to the sorrows of women.

The acclaimed story “Kalu Bhangi”—considered one of the finest in Urdu literature—artistically portrays the suffering of the Dalit community. “Mahalaxmi ka Pul” tells a deeply moving tale of exploitation. “Lal Bagh” confronts communal violence, and “Amritsar : Aazadi se Pahle aur Baad” offers two powerful narratives on the tragedy of Partition. “Peshawar Express” captures the blood-soaked displacement of the time, and “Jamun ka Ped” is a sharp satire on bureaucracy.

These stories from Krishan Chander’s pen not only shake the reader’s conscience but also hold up a mirror to the bitter truths of society.

This collection is a priceless treasure for lovers of Urdu literature and those drawn to social realism.
