Book Details
जसबीर भुल्लर एक प्रसिद्ध पंजाबी लेखक और कुशल कहानीकार हैं। यह उपन्यास दो मगरमच्छों के बारे में है। वे दोनों एक नदी में रहते हैं जिसमें विनाशकारी बाढ़ आई थी जिसने उन्हें अलग कर दिया था। नदी ही उनके लिए सबकुछ थी. इसका पानी उनकी नाव थी, जो उन्हें कहीं भी ले जाने के लिए हमेशा तैयार रहती थी। इससे उन्हें वह भोजन मिला जो उन्हें पसंद था। यदि वह पानी में अपनी पूँछ हिलाती तो अद्भुत ध्वनि उत्पन्न होती। बाढ़ के बाद मगरमच्छ ज़मीन पर आ गए। इस विपरीत परिस्थिति ने उन्हें व्यथित कर दिया था...यह आश्चर्यजनक है कि तथ्य और कल्पना को कितनी खूबसूरती से एक साथ बुना गया है। ऐसा लगता है मानो वह उनके साथ रहा हो और यह सब देखा हो। आप इसे एक बार में ही ख़त्म कर देंगे.
अतनु रॉय के चित्र आपको किराली मगरमच्छ से परिचित कराएंगे। यह आपको जंगल में ले जाएगा जहां कहानी सेट है। इस कहानी को पढ़ने के बाद आप जरूर पूछेंगे कि क्या हमारे पास जसबीर भुल्लर की कोई और किताब है।
