Coles Aamchi Mumbai: My City in Stories and Poems at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
For seven decades, Gulzar-one of India's most beloved and respected literary and cinematic personalities-has made Mumbai (once called Bombay) his home.
Over the years, Gulzar has written at length on the city, in the form of both poems and short prose pieces. These writings reflect not only his inimitable thoughts on the city, but also many facets of the ever-changing and evolving metropolis, as a Mumbaikar sees it.
Aamchi Mumbai brings together twenty-five unforgettable short stories, all set in Mumbai, and thirty-six poems, arising from Gulzar's experience of living in the great city. These poems and stories were handpicked and given their current arrangement for this collection by Gulzar himself; they appear together for the very first time.
Each story and poem has been newly translated by the renowned author and translator Rakhshanda Jalil. The original poems and stories appear in Devanagari script, alongside the English translations, in this bilingual volume.
A handsomely produced, giftable collection of poetry and prose, Aamchi Mumbai is a tribute to the great city of Mumbai from one of its best-known residents. It belongs on the shelf of every fan of Gulzar's and every lover of Mumbai.
