The unconventional storyteller's charming collection of short stories, selected from his first collection in English-Raavi Paar & other Stories. Crisp narratives with a universal theme, which include anecdotes, biographical references and everyday incidents, narrated in a conversational style.
Serious, poignant in some; funny and ironic in others-Gulzar's stories bring out his sincerity and sensitivity, he is identified with. Refreshingly simple in presentation, each one of them paints a clear picture in the minds of the reader-as vivid as a scene from one of his films.
