Chaurasi  (Hindi, Paperback, Vyas Satya)

"Love in the time of unrest". The story was really great to read. I was certainly apprehensive but 10 pages into the book and I was hooked on to the narrative. You know a book is well written when the reader starts to believe that the characters are someone he/she knows. It is a combination of heart warming love story and a tale of grotesque violence.

Mr. Satya Vyas is one of the best Hindi author's now a days. I have already read Banaras Talkies which was awesome every bit. Also this book excels on everything, be it the characters, content or language.

Very nice book it tell us about the riot against sikh due yo indira Gandhi assassination through a beautiful love story.
It also tell us how people are judged good or bad if a particular member of a community do a bad thing.
It tell us about the agony of those people who have to go from their own house leaving all their property when such type of communal riots happen.
