Diwali in Muzaffarnagar

Winner of the Sahitya Akademi Yuva Puraskar

Muzaffarnagar, the infamous north Indian town that is a byword for unrest, and where skirmishes are prone to break out ever so often. This is a place where teenage love and friendships are tested by the violence that threatens to erupt at the slightest provocation. A town that always pulls you back into its ways, no matter how cosmopolitan the city has made you.

In 'Diwali in Muzaffarnagar' — Tanuj Solanki's new book of short stories after 'Neon Noon' — young men and women straddle the past and the present, the metropolis and the small town, and also the parallel needs of life: solitude and family.
