Make Up and Break Up Stories-Nihar Pradhan
The
stories in the book are just not stories, but a diorama of contemporary life.
The characters, people and the protagonists are all modern and coetaneous as
if with a vengeance. The author touches on subtly the problems gripping our
societies, the preference given to the male children to the female, the
poverty stricken class going to hunt for food, rag-picking children hazarding
their lives digging even the radioactive garbage dumped outside a plastic
factory; differently able children to the man-woman relationship caught up in
a matter-of-fact life, from the highbrow to the lowly ones...Nihar’s art
seems boundless. |
