Summary: For Now, It Is Night is a collection of short stories by Hari Krishna Kaul, one of Kashmir’s most acclaimed writers, translated into English by Kalpana Raina, Tanveer Ajsi, Gowhar Fazili, and Gowhar Yaqoob. The stories vividly portray the struggles of displacement, alienation, and the erosion of cultural identity amid Kashmir’s political and social turmoil. Through wit, irony, and empathy, Kaul captures the emotional landscapes of individuals navigating exile, memory, and the loss of home. Kaul's candid stories spill over with detail as they convey everyday life in a Kashmir rendered extraordinary by simmering political conflict and the 1990s exodus of the Pandit community.
