Soft cover. Condition: New. Mannu Bhandari's genius lies not in elevating women to heroines or superior beings; rather, she forces us to acknowledge that flawed, confused, and self-centered women are as worthy of agency and respect. She wrote among literary giants who were mostly men, but carved a singular space for herself with her unflinching gaze at the hypocrisy of a society that claims to venerate women yet balks at giving them the keys to their shackles. These 18 stories are representative of her wonderful insights into the inner life of women her characters span the spectrum from rural to urban, illiterate to educated, homemakers to career professionals. Through all the stories runs a vein of gentle mockery the inimitable Mannu Bhandari style.

Hardbound. Condition: As New. New. Mannu Bhandari's writing disproves the myth that acceptance of a literary work by a wider readership is necessarily at the cost of its artistic qualities. Hailed by the most exacting and fastidious critics as a monumental work on the theme of a child's alienation from his parents and environment Mannu Bhandari's Bunty has already run into several editions and is still one of the ten bestsellers in Hindi. One of the best novels written in the post independence era on the predicament of a child and his estranged parents Bunty has been translated into all the major Indian languages. Mannu Bhandari has often been compared with Dorothy Richardosn and Katharine Mansefield. Comparison however tend to mislead. Once the apparent analogies are forgotten we see before us not the Indian version of an European writer but the totality of Indian sensibilities against the backdrop of fast changing social ethos after independence. Mannu Bhandari has a style of her own at once facile and lyrical intense and subtle and at the same time not without a sense of sharp perception and devotion to her craft. Bunty while breaking new grounds on the man and woman relationship in the context of contemporary Indian society makes a stunning impact unique in many ways. The great Hindi writer Jainendra Kumar observes In this novel Mannu Bhandari has shown remarkable discipline and sensitivity. It has a rare power to move and disturb. 222 pp.
