About this audiobook

Brilliant ... an iconic voice - Namita Gokhale One of the finest short story writers from India - Aruni Kashyap Jenny Bhatt ... deserves our gratitude and attention - Rita Kothari Train your telescopes, ladies and gentlemen, Dhumketu is here! - Jerry Pinto The tragic love story of a village drummer and his dancer lover... A long-awaited letter that arrives too late... A tea-house near Darjeeling, run by a mysterious queen... When Dhumketu's first collection of short stories, Tankha, came out in 1926, it revolutionized the genre in India. Characterized by a fine sensitivity, deep humanism, perceptive observation and an intimate knowledge of both rural and urban life, his fiction has provided entertainment and edification to generations of Gujarati readers and speakers. Ratno Dholi brings together the first substantial collection of Dhumketu's work to be available in English. Beautifully translated for a wide new audience by Jenny Bhatt, these much-loved stories - like the finest literature - remain remarkable and relevant even today.
