Author: Bhisham Sahni
Tamas (meaning Darkness) is Bhisham Sahni’s celebrated novel set during the Partition of India in 1947. Written with stark realism and deep compassion, Tamas portrays the communal violence that erupted as religious and political tensions boiled over, leaving a trail of devastation in its wake.
The novel opens with a chilling incident: a pig’s carcass is deliberately placed at the steps of a mosque, sparking riots between Hindus and Muslims in a small town in Punjab. Through multiple perspectives—Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, British—Sahni reveals the fear, hatred, manipulation, and human frailty that fuel violence. Ordinary people are swept up in chaos beyond their control, their lives forever changed.
Bhisham Sahni, who himself witnessed Partition’s horrors, writes with unflinching honesty yet deep empathy for all sides. Tamas is both a historical record and a powerful plea against communal hatred. Widely regarded as one of the most important works of modern Indian literature, it has been translated into many languages and adapted into award-winning film and television.
