Yasi, Rasa and Ta are three restless children who live modest lower-middle-class lives at the edge of town, but their imaginations gleam with threads of many colours. Bored bicycles move away from their owners in the hope of being stolen … A light bulb in a sari shop mischievously switches itself on and off … Chalk doodles squirm and squiggle when adults are in the room … Sandals lying by the door plead to be worn … The adults who play their games must enter many worlds – the one that prevails and the ones that are possible. They mumble and ask questions, but time and again they realize that a single glance won’t take in the whole sky. In The Windows in Our House Are Little Doors, Vinod Kumar Shukla unrolls dreamy wisdom and brocade-like moments that catch the light and dazzle. This ‘novel in twenty-six stories’ is a thing of sublime joy and pure delight.
