The Play of Dolls
Penguin Random House India
Cover illustration for The Play of Dolls by Kunwar Narain
A collection of surreal—and sometimes un-really real—short stories that take the reader to the depths of fantasy and history to the extremities of horror and love, and play with their own beliefs. The only restless relief is when you ultimately sit down in wonderment after reading these bizarre, yet absolute sane stories. With what all is happening around us, the title of this collection works on so many levels, it's not even funny.
The illustration featuring the literal and metaphorical dolls projects an eery feel that we find in Narain's stories.
