Dashti Kishor Upanyas by Ashapurna Debi [Hardcover]

Ashapurna Devi transformed domestic stories into something extraordinary with her writing skill and talent. Through the brilliance of these stories, our familiar homes became illuminated. Just as she had a special place in writing for adults, she also created a space in the minds of children with her homely, lively stories. She wasn't strictly a children's writer, nor did she write extensively for them, but the few simple yet innovative gifts she gave to children were filled with affection and a magical ability to touch young hearts. Every piece she wrote for young readers was easy to understand, yet beautifully woven with humor and charm. What stood out was Ashapurna's deep insight into the world of children. Her keen understanding of the home allowed her to perfectly capture the mindset of young boys and girls who were both growing up within its boundaries and eager to break free. The stories included in this collection showcase that very understanding.
