Synopsis "Tren a Pakistán"

Set in 1947, when the territories of Hindustan obtained their independence from Great Britain, this novel recounts the consequences of the division of continental India into the two countries of India and Pakistan. Religious hatred runs rampant in both countries, and when the local moneylender is murdered in a northern Indian town close to the Pakistani border, everyone suspects a well-known Sikh thief who is in love with a Muslim. The gossip that leads to the crime, the arrival of a train full of dead bodies, and rumors of uprisings in other parts of the country prevent further peaceful coexistence in the town. This modern Indian classic, published for the first time in 1956, demonstrates how easy it is to incite hatred and disrupt the peace in communities that had coexisted peacefully for centuries. Ambientada en 1947, cuando los territorios del Indostán que dependían del Imperio Británico alcanzaron la independencia, esta novela recuenta las consecuencias de la división del territorio continental de la India en los dos países de India y Pakistán. El odio religioso se extiende por ambos países, y cuando el prestamista local es asesinado en un pequeño pueblo al norte de la India en la frontera con Pakistán, todas las sospechas recaen sobre un conocido ladrón sij enamorado de una musulmana. Las habladurías que provoca el crimen, la llegada de un tren cargado de cadáveres y los rumores de revueltas en otras partes del país terminan enrareciendo la convivencia en el pueblo. Este clásico de la literatura india moderna, publicado por primera vez en 1956, muestra lo fácil que es incitar al odio y romper la armonía en comunidades que habían convivido pacíficamente durante siglos.
