Terhi Lakir (The Crooked Line)
Ismat Chughtai
In India’s colonial past, in a time of political and social revolution, Ismat Chughtai masterfully unfolds her magna opus, The Crooked Line:
the semi-autobiographical tale of a fiery-spirited, middle-class Muslim
girl bent on exploring the shape and nature of consuming desire.
Writing with the same honesty and passion as her scandalous short-story,
“The Quilt,” Chughtai exposes the complex relationships developed
between women living and working in relative seclusion, and the
intellectual and emotional contradictions lying in the heart of a
rebellious country on the brink of independence from the British Raj and
ultimately Partition.
