Event Description : 'This Side That Side' Book Launch.
Restorying Partition with Graphic Narratives from Pakistan, India, Bangladesh
For over three generations now, the most definitive formative moment in modern South Asian history, Partition has remained a phenomenon of constant engagement for scholars, artists, journalists and commentators manifesting their explorations through academic research, reportage and most importantly, creative encounters through art, literature and films. This Side That Side is the first-ever compendium of its kind which seeks to bring together graphic narratives on that epochal moment from comic book writers, graphic artists, film makers and illustrators from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. The Anthology is a culmination of the best stories and graphic styles from the three countries. These were selected through an open call floated in Bangladesh, Pakistan and India simultaneously in 2011.
VISHWAJYOTI GHOSH, a graphic novelist and filmmaker is the author of Delhi Calm, a political graphic novel set during the Emergency of the 1970s and a founding member of the PAO Collective.
