The greatest Odia stories ever told showcases odia’s greatest storytellers ranging from literary masters such as fakir Mohan Senapati, Gopinath Mohanty, Reba Ray and man's Das to contemporary stalwarts like Pratibha Ray and nrusingha Tripathi, among others. A young woman who was dragged away by a crocodile mysteriously resurfaces after a decade in Manoj das’s ‘Mrs crocodile’; a pet goat let loose in a government Office causes amusement and chaos in Gopinath Mohanty’s ‘the solution’; Godavari's mahapatra’s ‘maguni’s bullock cart’ deals with the anxieties of a bullock cart driver stuck between the trappings of traditions and modernity stories in this anthology traverse an exciting range of themes from fantasy to reality and bone-chilling horror to rib-tickling humour. Timeless, evocative and striking, the greatest Odia stories ever told offers a rich selection of stories that are unrivalled in their range, style and complexity. Selected and translated by leelawati Mohapatra, Pau

Leelawati Mohapatra published her debut novel, Hanging by a Tail, in 2008. She has co-translated (with K. K. Mohapatra and Paul St-Pierre) extensively from Odia into English. Her books of translation include, among others, The HarperCollins Book of Oriya Short Stories, Ants, Ghosts and Whispering Trees: An Anthology of Oriya Short Stories, J P Das: Sundardas, Fakir Mohan Senapati: The Bride price and Other Stories and Laxmikanta Mahapatra: Uncle One Eye. Paul St-Pierre is a former Professor of Translation Studies at Montreal University. He has co-edited several books on translation theory and practice and has spent nearly a quarter-century collaborating with, apart from the Mohapatras, several Odia translators such as Ganeswar Mishra, Besant Kumar Tripathy, Himansu Sekhar Mohapatra, Rabindra Swain and Dipti Ranjan Patnaik. With the Mohapatras he has also recently finished a new translation of Fakir Mohan Senapati’s iconic novel, Chha Mana Atha Guntha. K. K. (Kamalakanta) Mohapatra has written three collections of short stories, a novel, a book of non-fiction and an autobiography. He has also translated into Odia selected stories by Isaac Bashevis Singer, Jean-Paul Sartre and Franz Kafka, as well as William Shakespeare’s King Lear and collaborated with Leelawati Mohapatra and Paul St-Pierre on numerous works of translation from Odia into English.
