Ek Chuha Mara Hua  (Paperback, Ashwini Ahuja)

Ek Chuha Mara Hua: A book by Ashwini Ahuja Ashwini Ahuja's creativity in the field of Hindi storytelling is a promise to the literary world, which was fulfilled with the first edition of his first story collection "Ek Chuha Mara Hua" in 1991. Now, 34 years later, the new edition of this book has published on the demand of readers. The author has successfully exposed the system in educational institutions and the stinking mentality of the so-called guardians of education and high morality. When the first edition of "Ek Chuha Mara Hua" was published, there was a lot of discussion about the stories due to the explicit language and portrayal of sexual frustration. At that time, Dr. Saraswat Mohan Manishi, a professor of Hindi at Delhi University, wrote that if Ashwini Ahuja's stories are analyzed honestly, they reveal a strong desire to break free from social contradictions and stinking mentality. Now, in the second edition of the book, the author has made the necessary improvements in the language of the stories. After 34 years of writing stories in English and Hindi, the author has realized that he doesn't need to use explicit language to criticize social evils and stinking mentality. He is capable of doing so while maintaining the dignity of language. Moreover, the book is worth to read.
