Explore the profound literary journey of Suryakant Tripathi Nirala, a towering figure of the Chhayavadi era, in “Choti Ki Pakar (चोटी की पकड़)”.

While his poetry, like ‘Juhi Ki Kali’, and prose, including novels written in Khari Boli, garnered immense acclaim, his writing remained remarkably close to reality. This book delves into the life and works of a writer who, despite his early 1920s beginnings, left an indelible mark on Indian literature. Nirala’s legacy endures, a testament to his unique genius and enduring message of hope, captured in his final poem ‘Abhi Na Hoga Mera Ant’.
