About This Book

The Siyah Hashiye stories written by Manto are related to the India and Pakistan Partition period. These stories that encompass a line or a paragraph are called Siyah Hashiye, which means Black borders. It is believed that when bad or morose news was published in the newspaper much like today, it was bordered with a black outline. Manto's Siyah Hashiyes gives you a similar twitch in the stomach that you feel when you hear of a death or an accident of a dear one. His pen pierces through your heart like a prick of a needle leaving no bruise, just an urgent rush of pain.
