β¦ Synopsis
The strength of [his] short stories ... lies in the fact that [he] grasped the weaknesses of his characters and their strengths' - Mulk Raj Anand 'A man of literature, a journalist of distinction, a film-maker who created a genre of his own' - Gulzar---- An Evening in Calcutta is a collection of celebrated writer and award-winning film-maker K.A. Abbas's most memorable stories. His characteristically crisp narratives and bold plotlines, informed as deeply by historical detail as they are by contemporary politics, reach into the familiar to draw out startling truths.
