• Description: Colors Caught in Mist is the English translation of Govind Mishra's Hindi novel “Kohre Mein Quiad Rang,” showcasing considerable maturity and craftsmanship. The story unfolds about the past while being discussed in the present, creating a narrative that feels like a novel within a novel. In another creative twist, fiction intertwines with reality. The narrative juxtaposes two distinct time periods, where the innocent, traditional Saraswati is replaced by the modern, confident, and independent Reva, who critically reflects on the narrative thus far. Featuring both memorable and breakout characters, this work stands as a hallmark of contemporary Hindi fiction. It was awarded the Sahitya Academy Award in 2008.
