About this product

Product Information

It's the mid-to-late 1800s and the British have banished Wajid Ali Shah -- the nawab of Awadh in Lucknow -- to Calcutta. To the sound of the soulful melody of the sarangi , the mercurial courtesan Laayl-e Aasman is playing a dangerous game of love, loyalty, deception, and betrayal. Bajrangi and Kundan, bound by their love for each other and for Laayl-e, struggle to keep their balance. Ranging across generations and geography, the scale of Laayl-e's story sweeps the devil, a crime lord, and many other remarkable characters into a heady mix. Mirror of the Darkest Night is almost an aberration in Mahasweta Devi's oeuvre. Known for her activism and hard-hitting indictment of social inequalities, she pays close attention to detail in this sparkling novel. It offers a rare glimpse of Devi's talent for telling the sort of story she normally eschewed -- and it's a cracker of a tale. 'This is a tale about passion and responsibility brushing against each other. It is about a woman making a long journey--from being a scared young girl named Munni to a much-desired courtesan who can break hearts and cause turmoil--at the risk of being branded a witch. At a broader level, it is about the different ways in which men and women usurp the things they want or need, and about their relationship with power: What does it mean to operate on the outskirts of "respectable" society while also grappling with universal human emotions?' -- Scroll
