For nearly a century, Britain directly ruled the region as a colony. But when the British hastily departed in 1947, giving India and Pakistan independence, communities that had lived side by side in relative peace were torn apart by unfathomable sectarian violence. The stories in "Crossing Over" depict the responses and emotions of ordinary people caught in a tragic turning point in history, when tolerance, respect, and compassion broke down. Written by some of the region's finest writers, these works make us aware that such responses are not exclusive to South Asia. They are possible everywhere. 505 0 $a Essays: from The other side of silence / Urvashi Butalia -- On writing sleepwalkers / Joginder Paul -- Fiction: The train has reached Amritsar / Bhisham Sahni ; translation from Hindi by Alok Bhalla -- Toba Tek Singh / Saadat Hasan Manto ; translation from Urdu by Tahira Naqvi -- Lajwanti / Rajinder Singh Bedi ; translation from Urdu by Alok Bhalla -- Incognita / Rashid Haider ; translation from Bengali by Radha Chakravarty -- Pali / Bhisham Sahni ; translation from Hindi by the author -- The claim / Mohan Rakesh ; translation from Hindi by Richard Williams -- The dog of tetwal / Saadat Hasan Manto ; translation from Urdu by Ravikant and Tarun K.
