Book Details
"एक नया देश बन रहा था", वयस्क चर्चा कर रहे थे। मुझे पता चला कि जब एक नया देश बनता है, तो आइसक्रीम और कैंडी बेचने वाले हमारी सड़क पर आना बंद कर देते हैं। यह एक अच्छी चीज नहीं है।"
जसबीर भुल्लर ने कहानियों के इस छोटे से संग्रह में 1946-49 के दौरान अपने बचपन की यादों को बड़े प्यार से संजोया है। उनके कोमल शब्द सड़कों पर हल्के-हल्के चलते हैं और आपको एक हल्का सा खिंचाव देते रहते हैं जैसे कोई बच्चा आपको अपनी नई खोज का रास्ता दिखा रहा हो। उसकी खोज एक मरता हुआ पौधा है जिसे वह घर या किताबों से भरा घर लाता है।
चंद्रमोहन कुलकर्णी की कलाकृति पाठ को एक धार, एक रंगीन और जीवंत धार देती है। एक नज़र आपको इसे दोबारा देखने के लिए आमंत्रित करेगी।
