THE STORIES IN THIS BOOK ARE ALL OF A COMMON WOMAN WHOM WE SEE OFTEN EVERYWHERE. THESE STORIES REVEAL THE TRUTH ABOUT HER, THE FACTS WHICH ARE SURPRISINGLY INTENSE, YET THESE STORIES ARE VERY MEANINGFUL AND ARTISTIC. A GIRL CHILD IS A BURDEN EVEN BEFORE SHE IS BORN. SHE IS EXPLOITED AT ALL THE MODES OF LIFE. NO ONE SEEMS TO CELEBRATE HER BIRTH, ON THE CONTRARY, EVERY SINGLE BRICK IN THE HOUSE MOURNS ON HER BIRTH. THIS ESPECIALLY, WORRIES THE MOTHER OF SUCH CHILD. IN A LIFESTYLE, WHERE SCARCITY IS IN AMPLE, THEN ALL THE WOMEN MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY FROM THE OLDEST TO THE YOUNGEST HAVE TO FACE THE INSUFFICIENCY, THE SCARCITY, AND THE PSYCHOLOGICAL AND PHYSICAL TORTURE IT BRINGS WITH IT. THE SOCIETY TREATS THE MALE GENDER AND THE FEMALE GENDER DIFFERENTLY. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES, THE WOMAN CAN BE THE ONE TO CARRY THE NAME OF HER HEREDITY. RICH OR POOR, A WOMAN IS ALWAYS AN OUTSIDER IN HER HOUSE, IN HER FAMILY, AT HER INLAWS PLACE, IN HER PARENT'S HOUSE. SHE IS TREATED AS A SERVANT, AS A SLAVE EITHER DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY. NOBODY BELIEVES THAT SHE HAS HER CLASS, CASTE, OPINION, MIND, ETC. SHE IS ALWAYS CONSIDERED AS A DOWNTRODDEN, SHE IS ALWAYS IGNORED. THE SOCIETY TAKES A PRIDE IN USING HER FOR ITS VARIOUS DESIRES. SHE IS USED TO SATISFY THE LUST. SHE IS USED FOR GETTING WORK DONE. SHE IS USED FOR RAISING THE FAMILY. THE SOCIETY STANDS ON HER EFFORTS. WHILE DOING SO, THE SOCIETY DECORATES HER WITH DIFFERENT ORNAMENTS UNDER THE NAME OF VICE, VIRTUE, HOLY, SINFUL, LAWFUL, AND UNLAWFUL. THE STORIES HERE ARE A RESULT OF ALL THE FEELINGS AND CONCERN FOR A WOMAN WHO IS NATURALLY A PREY TO ALL THIS.THESE STORIES SHADE LIGHT ON THE DRAMA, PITY, STRUGGLE, POETRY, INJUSTICE, NEGLIGENCE, TORTURE, PAIN, TROUBLE, EXPLOITATION, ETC. WE COME ACROSS THE IMAGES WHICH ARE FULL OF FEELINGS, THE DIALOGUES WHICH ARE VERY MEANINGFUL, THE VARIOUS ASPECTS OF THE LANGUAGE, THE DIFFERENT ANGLES OF NARRATION, THE PERFECT SEQUENCING OF THE WORDS, ETC. ALL THESE ASPECTS MAKE THE STORIES VERY LIVELY AND TRUE. THEY AFFECT THE READER WITH THE TRUTHFULNESS. THEY IMPRESS THE MINDS DEEPLY. ALL THESE STORIES REPRESENT THE PAIN OF A FEMALE MIND AS NEVER BEFORE.

THERE WERE TREMENDOUS CHANGES SEEN IN THE SOCIAL, CULTURAL, CULTURAL, EDUCATIONAL, FINANCIAL, POLITICAL, INDUSTRIAL, TECHNOLOGICAL LIFE IN MAHARASHTRA DURING THE 50 YEARS POST INDEPENDENCE. THIS ALL NATURALLY AFFECTED THE LITERATURE, AS THE VIEWS OF THE LITTERATEUR CHANGED A LOT. NEW LINES AND FORMS OF LITERATURE CAME INTO PRACTICE. INITIALLY, THEY SUCCEEDED IN MAKING THE OLD APPEAR DULL, BUT WITH THE TIME, THEY ALSO LOST THEIR SPEED. ON THIS BACKGROUND, ANAND YADAV STANDS IN TO SEARCH THE MENTALITY CHANGED WITH THE TIME; HE TRIES TO UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENT LINES AND FORMS OF LITERATURE, HE WORKS ON THEIR INITIATIVES, THEIR SIMILARITIES, THEIR DIFFERENCES, THEIR BACKGROUNDS WITH ALL HIS WIT AND WILL. HE HIMSELF IS A VERY SENSITIVE LITTERATEUR AND A CONTEMPLATIVE CRITIC.

HE FOUND HER TO BE LIKE THE FIRST FOOTSTEPS OF THE FIRST SPRING AT THE BEGINNING OF THE ERA ON THIS EARTH. HE HEARD HER HEART BEATS, WHICH STARTED THE FIRST, THE "AADI` TAAL. SINCE THEN IT HAS BEEN CONTINUOUSLY BEATING ON ALONG WITH THE TIME, FOR ERAS IT IS IN HARMONY WITH THE ETERNAL TIME PRODUCING ITS "DHIN TIK`. THIS GAVE BIRTH TO THE RHYTHM ON THE EARTH. HE THOUGHT THAT HE HAS FOUND `AADITAAL`.

THIS IS A COLLECTION OF STORIES. THEY ALL HAVE BLOSSOMED WITH THE WRITER`S SKILL IN PICTURISING THE VARIOUS FORMS. AUTHOR HAS SUCCESSFULLY PENETRATED THE ADVERSE SURROUNDINGS, THE FINE TENSIONS IN THE RELATIONSHIPS, THE CHANGING VILLAGES, THE CONTRAST IN EVERYONE`S LIFE, THE VIRILITY, THE RURAL ADORNMENT, AND THE THROBBING MINDS. AT THE SAME TIME, THE AUTHOR HAS BEEN ABSTEMIOUS IN BALANCING THE TRUE SOCIALIZATION AND THE ART.

BY THE TIME, ANAND STARTED WRITING STORIES, HE HAD MASTERED THE POETRY FORM VERY WELL. HIS STORIES SOUGHT NEW DIMENSIONS AND ACHIEVED HEIGHTS LINE AFTER LINE. HIS STORIES ARE BASED ON RURAL LIVES. THEY ARE NOT MONOTONOUS IN THEIR FORM. EACH TALKS FOR ITSELF. THE CHARACTERS HAVE THEIR OWN NATURE, VOICE AND WAY OF BEHAVING AND COMMUNICATING. IN THIS RECENT BOOK, THE DIFFERENCE IN STYLE IS NOTICEABLE. HE IS SKIPPING THE UNWANTED DETAILS LIKE SKETCHING THE NATURE, EXTRA DIALOGUES AND MANY SUCH THINGS. HIS CHARACTERS ARE BECOMING MORE PRECISE. AT TIMES, HIS WRITING HAS A TOUCH OF DRAMATIC. THE EMOTIONS REVEALED ARE VARIED. THIS IS A COLLECTION OF 24 STORIES. THEY ALL ARE BASED ON VARIOUS EXPERIENCES. THE CHARACTERS PAINTED HERE HAVE SHADES TOO. THEY DO NOT COPY EACH OTHER. EACH ONE LEADS HIS OR HER LIFE AND HAS HIS OR HER PERCEPTIONS. THESE STORIES TAKE PLACE IN THE VICINITY OF A VILLAGE WHICH ITSELF IS A COMMUNITY. EACH VILLAGE HAS ITS OWN IDENTITY. YET, IT WILL NOT BE WRONG TO SAY THAT SOMEWHERE ALL THE VILLAGERS ARE TIED UP IN A HARMONIOUS SETTING. WHATEVER DIFFERENCES THEY MIGHT BE HAVING, THEY JOIN HANDS IN CASE OF DANGERS. THEY ALL ARE INDEED HUMANS AFTER ALL……………
