Description
In the words of Namvar Singh, ...Nirmal has attempted to transcend the limits of reality. He has sought to transcend the immediate present, to transcend the confines of the art of storytelling. He has even attempted to transcend the impenetrable wall of words and enter the silent world that existed before words. Nirmals stories repeatedly attempt to capture this silence within humanity, a task he makes possible only in the midst of life. Revealing the intense and subtle feelings of humankind in the emotionally fraught terrain of life, the stories in this collection explore loneliness, depression, alienation, and the ironies of modern life with rare vividness and authenticity. First published in 1965, most of the stories in this collection are set against the backdrop of Europe, including such well-known stories as A Night in London, Antar, and The Burning Bush. In this collection, there is also a story titled Maya Darpan on which the famous parallel cinema director Kumar Shahani made a film with the same name, which received the Best Hindi Film Award in 1973.
