- Heart lamp : selected stories / by Mushtaq, Banu,author.; Bhasthi, Deepa,translator.;
A monumental first collection in English from Banu Mushtaq: lawyer, activist, champion of Muslim women, and winner of India's highest literary honors. In the twelve stories of Heart Lamp, Banu Mushtaq exquisitely captures the everyday lives of women and girls in Muslim communities in southern India. Published originally in the Kannada language between 1990 and 2023, praised for their dry and gentle humor, these portraits of family and community tensions testify to Mushtaq's years as a journalist and lawyer, in which she tirelessly championed women's rights and protested all forms of caste and religious oppression. Written in a style at once witty, vivid, colloquial, moving and excoriating, it's in her characters the sparky children, the audacious grandmothers, the buffoonish maulvis and thug brothers, the oft-hapless husbands, and the mothers above all, surviving their feelings at great cost that Mushtaq emerges as an astonishing writer and observer of human nature, building disconcerting emotional heights out of a rich spoken style. Her opus has garnered both censure from conservative quarters as well India's most prestigious literary awards; this is a collection sure to be read for years to come.--Heart Lamp is a powerful collection of twelve stories by Banu Mushtaq, portraying the everyday lives of women and girls in Muslim communities in southern India. Originally written in Kannada between 1990 and 2023, the stories blend wit, emotion, and sharp social critique. Drawing on her experience as a journalist and lawyer, Mushtaq explores themes of gender, caste, and religious oppression through vivid, relatable characters. Celebrated and controversial, this award-winning collection is a lasting testament to her literary and activist legacy.Winner of the 2025 International Booker Prize ; Winner of a PEN Translates Award
