Banarasidas ARDHAKATHANAK (A Half Story)

By: Rohini Chowdhury

Poet; philosopher and merchant; Banarasidas had no precedent in literature or tradition that might have inspired him to write his life’s story or guided him in his task. His motivation to write his story was simple: ‘Let me tell my story to all.’ Completed in the winter of 1641; in Agra; Ardhakathanak is the first autobiography in an Indian language. Banarsidas charms us with his transparency and frankness; revealing as much of himself as possible. And he punctuates the fast-flowing narrative of his life every now and then to muse on the nature of human existence. The result is an astonishing account that is more modern than medieval in tone; and free of formulaic conventions and stylized ornamentation. At the end of his ‘half story’; Banarasi becomes as intimate to us as an old friend. We know the ups and downs of his life almost as well as we know our own and we come to identify with his intellectual and spiritual struggles; and perhaps even share them.

OF SWANS AND SONGS

By: ROHINI PARANJPE SATHE

Serendipitous reunions, bittersweet partings, unexpected discoveries, betrayals, abuse and violence: these and life’s other intermittent challenges form the premise of the stories in this collection. When the Girl Died throws up the Mathurs’ discomfiture when confronted with the news of a rape. In The Messenger, rational and cynical Aarti suddenly starts hallucinating about her late father. Is there an omen there? Young Anuja Grows Up as her family grapples with the skeletons tumbling out of their tightly guarded closet. In Amma, a celebrated classical singer is resurrected after her passing by her devoted biographer. Finding Shobha describes a tuition teacher’s coming to terms with her erratically fluctuating mood and her rapidly emptying nest. In Of Swans and Songs, an extramarital affair breaks an acclaimed surgeon’s family that then tries to mend ties and move on towards a semblance of peace. And a fortuitous coming together of generations and cultures ensures that the Limayes enjoy A Happy Diwali. These are stories about seemingly ordinary, everyday people – the drama in their lives, in their struggles and dreams. Their emotional personas. The strength they find to overcome life’s roadblocks and rediscover the happy equilibrium that was once theirs.
