Description

An assortment of original and unexpected short stories by one of India's most renowned countercultural authors. In this wildly imaginative collection of Nabarun Bhattacharya's stories, we meet characters like a trigger-happy cop in an authoritarian police state, a man who hangs on to a piece of rope from a deadly noose, a retired revolutionary enthralled by grandiose fantasies, and employees of a company that arranges lavish suicides for a fee. These stories offer a window into Bengal's political and social climate, tracing both national developments like the 1975 Emergency and local ones like militant leftist Naxalism and the decades-long Communist rule in the state. They range from biting social satires to surreal investigations of violence and love. professional translation from the Bengali, Hawa Hawa and Other Stories is a journey through the mind of one of the most daring countercultural writers of India, one with particular resonance in these chaotic times.
