About this book

  • कथालंकार' या लघुकथासंग्रहात लेखिका उर्मिला भुर्के यांनी स्त्रीच्या आयुष्यातील दागिन्यांचं महत्त्व आणि जिव्हाळा उलगडणाऱ्या कथा लिहिल्या आहेत.

    • दागिन्यांविषयीचं प्रेम आणि स्त्रीजीवनाच्या विविध पैलूंचं चिंतन यांना एकत्र करून त्यांनी या संग्रहातल्या कथा गुंफल्या आहेत.
    • २०२१ मध्ये साप्ताहिक सकाळमधून त्यांनी सदर स्वरूपात दागिन्यांच्या माध्यमातून स्त्रियांचं भावविश्व रेखाटलं. त्याचंच पुस्तकरूप म्हणजे हा संग्रह.
    • यातल्या प्रत्येक कथेला जगण्याचं परिमाण आहे. या कथा आपल्या मनातल्या प्रश्नांची उत्तरं शोधतात. जगण्यातला आनंद धुंडाळण्याचा प्रयत्न करतात. कथा वाचताना तो आनंद मनात हळुवार दरवळतो आणि हेच या कथांचं वैशिष्ट्य आहे.
    • लाघवी भाषा, उत्कट प्रसंगचित्रणं, मोजके आणि आटोपशीर संवाद यामुळे या लघुकथा विशेष वाचनीय झाल्या आहेत.

 

  • In the short story collection “Kathalankar,” author Urmila Bhurke presents stories that reveal the significance and emotional connection of jewelry in a woman’s life. She weaves together a love for ornaments with reflections on various aspects of women’s lives throughout the collection. In 2021, through a column in Saptahik Sakal, she portrayed the emotional world of women through the medium of jewelry. This collection is the book form of that very work. Each story carries a deeper meaning of life. These stories seek answers to the questions within our minds and attempt to explore the joy of living. As one reads them, that joy gently lingers in the heart—this is their true essence. With graceful language, vivid depiction of intense moments, and concise, well-crafted dialogues, these short stories become especially engaging and worth reading
