Deewar me ek khidaki rehati thi
भाषा पर तो विनोद कुमार शुक्ल का अपने ढंग का अधिकार है ही-प्रेमचंद और जैनेंद्र के बाद इतनी सादा, रोज़मर्रा भाषा में शायद ही किसी और में अभिव्यक्ति की ऐसी क्षमता हो– लेकिन इस उपन्यास में उन्होंने संभाषण की कई भाषाएँ और शैलियाँ ईजाद की हैं–एक वह जिसमें रघुवर प्रसाद लोगों से बोलते हैं, दूसरी वह जिसमें वे ख़ुद से बोलते हैं, तीसरी वह जिसमें रघुवर प्रसाद और सोनसी अपने एकांत में बोलते हैं और चौथी वह जिसमें रघुवर प्रसाद परिवार आपस में बात करता है जिसमें हल्की-सी आंचलिकता मिली हुई है, और पाँचवीं वह जिसमें विभागाध्यक्ष और पाचार्य बोलते हैं–सबसे ‘ठेठ’ वही है। एक और अद्भुत भाषा वह है जिसमें बोलने वाला और सुननेवाला बारी-बारी कहते कुछ हैं और सुनते कुछ और हैं और यह एक और ही अर्थबाहुल्य स्निग्धता को जन्म देता है।-विष्णु खरे
The immortals of meluha
1900 BC. In what modern Indians mistakenly call the Indus Valley Civilisation. The inhabitants of that period called it the land of Meluha a near perfect empire created many centuries earlier by Lord Ram, one of the greatest monarchs that ever lived. This once proud empire and its Suryavanshi rulers face severe perils as its primary river, the revered Saraswati, is slowly drying to extinction. They also face devastating terrorist attacks from the east, the land of the Chandravanshis. To make matters worse, the Chandravanshis appear to have allied with the Nagas, an ostracised and sinister race of deformed humans with astonishing martial skills. The only hope for the Suryavanshis is an ancient legend: When evil reaches epic proportions, when all seems lost, when it appears that your enemies have triumphed, a hero will emerge. Is the rough-hewn Tibetan immigrant Shiva, really that hero? And does he want to be that hero at all? Drawn suddenly to his destiny, by duty as well as by love, will Shiva lead the Suryavanshi vengeance and destroy evil?
