520    "Widely considered a reigning master of the modern short 
       story, Manto vividly conjures life on the streets of 
       Bombay - its prostitutes, pimps, gangsters, artists, 
       writers, and those caught in the fore of the India-
       Pakistan partition. Deeply opposed to partition, Manto is 
       best known for his portrayals of its violence and 
       absurdities. From an ownerless dog caught in the firing 
       squad at the border of the two countries, to neighbors 
       turned enemy soldiers pausing for tea together in a short 
       cease fire - Manto challenges the edges of geographic, 
       cultural, and social boundaries with an unflinching and 
       satirical gaze, and a powerful humanism. With an 
       introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Vijay Seshadri,
       this collection illuminates Manto's most vital and 
       universal work, and - half a century later - remains a 
       prescient text illuminating so many of the glaring and 
       silenced conflicts that plague humanity today"--|cProvided
