About this listen

Vinod Kumar Shukla's Blue Is Like Blue, translated from Hindi by Arvind Krishna Mehrotra and Sara Rai, has been awarded The Inaugural Mathrubhumi Book of Year Award 2020. It is also the Winner of the Atta Galatta–Bangalore Literature Festival Book Prize 2019. Blue is like blue is a short story collection by Vinod Kumar Shukla. Renowned for bringing the marvellous to the ordinary, Vinod Kumar Shukla has long been recognized as one of India's foremost writers, with a voice uniquely his own. The stories in Blue Is Like Blue deal with 'smaller-than-life people' set in very small towns where things most often revolve around the basic necessities of life. These stories are a mix of mature melancholy and a sense of comical play.

"Let's go home,' I said.

'Whose home?'

"You go to yours and I'll go to mine,' I said."
