A GRUESOME SAGA OF BLOOD AND GORE

When we look at partition literature, it can be the reflection of one of the most inhuman tragedies that was followed by thousands of gruesome killings, gory rapes, and arson perpetrated by bloodthirsty monsters in 1947.

These ghastly tales have been enshrined in the books of history and literature in their own subtle manners. The bliss of freedom was soon marred by the partition riots, protests, attacks, and brutal killings. Undoubtedly, umpteen eminent literary wits and acclaimed historians have written and edited several books pertaining to the subject of partition, but the internationally renowned author Dr. P.V. Laxmiprasad has edited this critical volume entitled "Partition as Reception: A Critical Study of Indian Partition Literature in Translation." This makes him stand class apart. The book is a critically evaluated work, one of the most scholarly works ever done on Partition Literature in Translation.
