The Novel Sukhi Ghar Society Is An Account Of A Residential Complex Located In The Suburbs Of Mumbai, Which, Like A Neighborhood In A Town, Is Filled With The Hustle And Bustle Of Diverse Life. It Also Contains Poignant Small Stories Of The Inner Conflicts Of The Metropolis, The Frustrations Of The Residents, And Their Daily Struggles, Which, Like Festering Wounds, Always Ache Within Them. But Its Narrative Is Not Limited To The Metropolis. It Also Contains The Tales Of Those Living On The Margins Of Villages, Uprooted From Their Homes, Who Come To The Metropolis Not For Tourism But For Livelihood, And While Dying There Slowly, Dream Of Returning To Their Villages. This Novel Is A Remarkable Account Of How A Person Manages To Preserve A Tender Emotion Like Love Amidst All The Humiliation And Hatredthe Pain Of Displacement, Water Scarcity, The Struggle To Reach Work On Time On The Local Train, The Deadly Task Of Cleaning Stinking Sewers, The Compulsion To Sell Their Bodies Dancing In Bars, And The Beatings And Beatings For Not Speaking The Local Language. While It Offers A Glimpse Of MumbaiS History, It Also Depicts The Present, The Crumbling Democratic System In The Country. The Seamless Movement Between The Present And History In The Novel Astonishes Us. While Reading It, It Repeatedly Confirms That Treating History As A Mere Skeleton Of The Past Often Leaves The Present Barren. However, Its Narrative Is So Deeply Rooted In Time That It Also Creates Historicity. Like The Numerous Flats In The Society, Its Narrative Is Woven With A Colorful World Of Diverse Characters. Each Chapter Of This Novel Offers The Rare Experience Of Reading A Self-Contained Story. Despite Its Autonomy, Each Chapter Also Seems To Spring From The Womb Of The Previous Chapter. Needless To Say, Reading The Pulse Of Our Times In Poetic Language, Like A Living Reality Within Our Own Bloodstream, Is A Positive Act To Remain Human In TodayS Inhumane Times, And This Novel By Vinod Das Fully Meets The Creative Test.
