500 _aSummary : 100 Indian Stories is the biggest and most ambitious collection of Indian short fiction ever published between the covers of a single volume. The short story in India is over 100 years old and this monumental anthology brings together 100 of the finest stories written by the country’s writers, starting with the late nineteenth century—when literary giants like Rabindranath Tagore and Fakir Mohan Senapati first made their mark. It then goes on to include some of the best fiction of the twentieth century before ending with work by stars of the twenty-first century. Importantly, the book sources stories from every major Indian language, region, generation, and literary tradition, giving readers a banquet of literature that is exceptional and utterly memorable.
