Pinjar

"Brought together in this volume are two of the most moving novels by one of India's greatest women writers, The Skeleton and The Man.

The Skeleton, translated from Punjabi into English by Khushwant Singh, is memorable for its lyrical style and depth in her writing. Known as the most important voice for the women in Punjabi literature, Amrita Pritam portrays the most inmost being of the novel's complex characters.

The Man is a compelling account of a young man born under strange circumstances and abandoned at the altar of God."
