3,000 copies of ‘Heart Lamp' sold out
Mysuru: The euphoria around 'Heart Lamp', the story collection of Hassan-based Kannada writer Banu Mushtaq, which brought the first International Booker Prize to Kannada, has continued. 'Edeya Hanate', a story collection in Kannada comprising 12 stories featured in the 'Heart Lamp' published by Abhiruchi Prakashana, is selling like hot cakes. 3,000 copies of this book, which was released on June 4, were sold out by June 8. According to Ganesh, publisher of Abhiruchi Prakashana, there is a demand for 20,000 copies of this book. It can be recalled that these 12 stories were part of 'Haseena Mattu Itara Kategalu'. "The Edeya Hanate book has great demand from all over the state," said Ganesh. "The book is well accepted by readers. The book is received very well both online and offline. We got huge demand from across the state, which is unique," he explained. He also stated that the demand for 'Haseena Mattu Itara Kategalu' is also good. Ganesh informed that the idea behind publishing the collection of 12 stories featured in the 'Heart Lamp' is to present the selected stories of Banu Mushtaq to readers, which will develop interest among readers in reading other stories of hers. "Immediately after she got the Booker Prize, there was a huge demand for her story collection. So we decided to bring this book along with the 'Haseena Mattu Itara Kategalu'. Currently, both the books are not available in the market. The re-printing is in progress," he said.
