About the author

Harishankar Parsai

87 books253 followers
Harishankar Parsai (हरिशंकर परसाई) was one of the greatest hindi satire writer. Despite holding a MA degree in English, he never wrote in this language. Started his career as a teacher, he later quit it to become a full time writer and started a literature magazine "Vasudha"(it was later closed because of financial difficulties).

He was famous for his blunt and pinching style of writing which included allegorical as well as realist approach. He was funny enough to make you laugh but serious enough to prick your conscience. There would be hardly any dimension of life left which has not appeared in his satires. He received Sahitya Academy Award(biggest literature award in India) for his book "Viklaang Sraddha ka Daur". He has penned down some novels also.

यह पूरी किताब 1984 के लेखों का संकलन है,और उस समय की राजनीति के ही इर्दगिर्द लिखे गये हैं,कुछ लेख सामाजिक समस्याओं पर भी इमानदारी से कटाक्ष करतें हैं मगर उनकी संख्या बहुत कम है,99% सभी लेखों मे सारी समस्या की जड़ चौधरी चरण,स्वामी ,अटल बिहारी ,अकालियों, वामपंथियों,को बनाया गया है,और कांग्रेस की कमियों पर परसाई जी पसर गये हैं जबकि सरकार में कांग्रेस है,हर समस्या और कमी के लिए सभी लेखों में इन्हीं व्यक्तियों को दोषी ठहृराना बोर कर दिया और जमा नहीं, वहीं परसाई जी की सदाचार की ताबीज ने हंसाया और चिंतन को प्रेरित भी किया, हो सकता मैं 1984 और 2017 की तुलना कर रहा हूं,क्योंकि तब भाजपा की छवि सांप्रदायिक रही हो लेकिन,सरकार तो कांग्रेस की थी न
