Gone are the Rivers: a Review

Airbus reviews a partition based novel ‘Lang Gaye Dariya’ (translated into English as ‘Gone are the Rivers’) by the major Panjabi writer Dilip Kaur Tiwana.

Tiwana does not sentimentalise the past by indulging in nostalgia, nor trumps the present. She neither celebrates the past, nor condemns it. It’s in how she avoids taking sides, and instead straddles a fine line of objectivity, that her credibility is established, and leads one to agree with those who consider Lang Gaye Dariya her finest work.
