Raavi Paar is a collection of
short stories which do not follow a particular theme but touch upon different
human emotions. The stories in this book have their roots in the Indian
culture but express universal emotions that are experienced across the boundaries
of regions, caste, and creed. Varied emotions of love, heartbreak, aloofness,
anxiety, fear, and longing are expressed in this book.There is one story in
which movie star Dilip Kumar breaks the heart of a young girl. There is
another where a man pushes off another from a moving train. Raavi Paar also
tells the story of a Muslim man whose wish is to be cremated after death and
not be buried. There is also a story about a married woman who realises that
the only reason for her husband to marry her was to use her as cheap
labour.The title of this book is an incident from the author’s own life.
During the India-Pakistan partition, the author was mistakenly claimed as
their own child by another family. Raavi Paar consists of stories which will
touch the reader’s hearts due to the simplicity and intricacy of emotions
portrayed by the author. It is written in the Hindi language and was
published by Rupa Publications in the year 1999. It is available in
paperback.
