A tourist is baffled by his taciturn companion on a dark and scary night in the hills. Two teenage boys compete to win a girl’s heart, the old-fashioned way, through letters. A woman aches to find a way out of an extra-marital affair that is going nowhere. A middle-aged man ponders the little details of his first love affair from the confines of a hospital bed.
In this collection of stories set in the unnamed villages and towns of the country, Manav Kaul mines the varied and many-hued emotions of teenage crushes, fear, love, longing and lust.
Appearing for the first time in English translation, A Night in the Hills (published in Hindi as Prem Kabootar) establishes Kaul as an essential voice in Indian literature.
