Krishnakali by Gaura Pant (Shivani)

Name:Krishnakali
Author: Gaura Pant (Shivani)
ISBN:8171673066

Summary:Its story of Krishnakali Mjumdar ,a girl born to two leper parents and brought up by prostitutes.Her story and love story and the problems of her birth and up bringing in its way.

My feeling:Krishnakali has been beautifully characterized by author,she is a girl with whom anyone will fall in love just by reading the book.She has been depicted as doing illegal things but yet you will not find it wrong.Though written much earlier but you will still find her relevant.

How I got it:My sister has a collection of Shivani novels.

Will I buy it for my collection: I have it.

  1. hi, well I m a great fan of Shivani, have read almost 15 of her novels and short stories. the pattern of writing is really very attractive, she has a common trend in he writing as usual always the main lead in story is a beautiful women character, but the point which is different in common women character and the character picturized by her is, her heroine has many short comings , and this book Krishnakali is also related to one shortcoming of a strong gal which makes her different.

  5. When the Raj Thakre's are hell bent on Marathi (no offence to the language please), it's good that Mumbaikars like you appreciate Hindi literature.
