'રામ મોરી'. ગુજરાતી સાહિત્ય સાથે જોડાયેલું એક એવું નામ છે જેને વાચકો અને વિવેચકોએ એકી અવાજે વધાવી લીધા છે. અનેક એવોર્ડ અને માન સમ્માન સાથે પોંખાયેલી રામ મોરીની કલમ 'મહોતું' વાર્તાસંગ્રહ દ્વારા સ્ત્રીઓના મનોજગતના નવા લોકમાં લઈ જાય છે. સમજવું અને સ્વીકારવું એ બંને અલગ ઘટના છે. 'મહોતું' સંગ્રહની વાર્તાઓ તમે સમજી શકશો પણ એ કથાઓની અંદર ઘૂંટાયેલા ઘેરા વાસ્તવને સ્વીકારવું કદાચ તમારા માટે અઘરું થઈ પડશે. આ કથાઓમાં લોહીલુહાણ કરી મુકે એવું વાસ્તવ સમાજની સામે દાંતિયા કરીને ઉભું છે. 21મી સદીમાં પણ સ્ત્રીઓ કેવી વિષમ સ્થિતિમાં જીવે છે એ કરૂણતા અહીં મૂંગા રહીને પણ ગોકીરો મચાવે છે.
