Brought together for the first time, the multi-volume 'Collected Short Stories' of Premchand are the first authoritative editions of their kind. Written between 1908 and 1937, they chart out the development of the author who held seminal views on morals and manners, nation and nationhood, love and longing, power and politics, creeds and credo, and margins and peripheries, contextualizing him and bringing his contemporary relevance.
The first in the multi-volume collection of short stories, this book contains, in chronological order, 50 short stories written by Premchand between 1908 and 1916. With a General Introduction by Alok Rai, a Volume Introduction by the editors, a comprehensive chronology of Premchand, extensive notes and detailed publishing history of the stories, a special table with titles in Urdu, Hindi, and English translation, and a glossary, this volume will appeal to students of literature in general and
translation in particular as well as general readers.
