The Other Side of Civilization (English Edition)

Vivid, visceral, and deeply moving!

In part, riveting historical fiction set against the tumultuous backdrop of India’s painful Partition to create Pakistan in the aftermath of British Imperialism.

In part a sensitive—sometimes haunting—examination of both the plight and power of women in Indian culture. Punctuated with keen wit and subtle satire, Pinnie Gupta expertly layers triumph and tragedy as the characters in these stories lay bare human frailties and miraculous strength.
