Heart Lamp

by Banu Mushtaq · 2025

Heart Lamp: Selected Stories is a collection of twelve short stories that powerfully explore systemic oppression, gendered violence, and the resilience of Muslim women and girls in southern India. Translated from Kannada, the tales blend dry humor with vivid, colloquial prose to portray family tensions, caste and religious discrimination, and everyday acts of resistance. The book won the 2025 International Booker Prize and was a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Gregg Barios Book in Translation Prize.
