Khushwant Singhs Zug nach Pakistan: Vision eines Menschen und seines Umfelds

Khushwant Singh is generally known for his journalistic achievements, but his success as a novelist is demonstrated by this novel "Train to Pakistan." Khushwant Singh can be described as the man in the city with a cheerful heart and a humorous outlook on life. If he was ever shaken by a tragic event, it was the mass killings that preceded the partition of the continent. This is also reflected in his outstanding work "Train to Pakistan," which is rightly regarded as an epic of modern India. This novel is a study of the anatomy of communal riots. It is a hallmark of Khushwant Singh's style that he vividly portrays what happens during communal riots and how they affect people both physically and psychologically. This novel captures the interest of every reader. It contains love scenes, sensual scenes, horror scenes, pathetic scenes, comic scenes, violent scenes, and all these scenes together form a milestone in the history of Indian literature in English. Khushwant Singh wrote this novel from the depths of his heart. He was deeply disturbed by the physical and psychological violence during the time of partition. Even after so many years, this novel remains just as popular with its readers as it was at the beginning.
