The story of Beero and his motley group friends is set against the impending partition of India. Beero's passage through adolescence is told through a series of vignettes involving characters who are each more eccentric than the next - wrestler, quack, prostitute; Hindu, Muslim, Sikh. But when partition becomes a reality, in a time of terror and carnage, the insane turn out be the only ones sane. Translated by Charles Sparrows and the author 'Long after the last page has been turned, the characters continue to live.' India Today 'The stalwart of Hindi literature.' The Hindu
