Description
Acharya Chatursen's Ambapalika and Other Stories brings together twenty-eight of the finest short stories by one of Hindi literature's most versatile and celebrated masters. Acharya Chatursen Shastri (1891-1960) was a novelist, essayist, historian, and physician whose works combined scholarly depth with literary imagination. In this collection, his narratives span the sweep of Indian history and culture-from the courtesan Ambapalika of ancient Magadha to the valour of Sinhagarh, from the wisdom of Chanakya to the anguish of Rajput queens, from Mughal intrigues to village tragedies. Each story is marked by his epic vision, psychological insight, and moral intensity. Translated into English with care and fidelity, these tales open a window onto the grandeur, pathos, and humanity of India's past, making them accessible to readers across the world.
