The Other in the Mirror: Stories from India and Pakistan - Paperback

by Sehyr Mirza (Author)

"With a Mantoesque aura pervading this collection of stories from across the great divide of 1947, the reader becomes complicit in fiction's inimitable capacity to subvert established "truths". A tribute to the power of story-telling, this is a heart-warming, humanizing and inspirational collection that deserves a wide readership." - Ayesha Jalal

"Reading through this mosaic of enthralling stories, my emotions relentlessly oscillated between agony and hope. While these stories brilliantly bring to life familiar characters, they also manifest the compelling essence of fiction that takes you to unfamiliar paths. I'm sure this book will ignite in readers a desire to rise above boundaries and divisive politics."- Nandita Das
