The most decisive formative moment in South Asian history, Partition has remained a site of constant engagement, investigation and memory-making for over three generations. Over the years, Partition discourse has been shaped by prevalent politics, the use of faith for political reasons, a nod to nostalgia, a cocktail of facts and rumours laced with speculation, and the scholarly exchange of memories.Marking a watershed, generational moments of chance in this discourse, This Side, That Side brings together graphic narratives on this epochal moment by comic artist, writers, illustrators, filmmakers, theatre activists and storytellers from across South Asia.This anthology explores a dominant theme in contemporary South Asia- an enduring curiosity about the ‘other side’. Poignant, contemplative, and often even playful, these narratives are creative explorations by those who may not have witnessed Partition, but who continue, till date, to negotiate its legacy.Many of the stories in This Side, That Side grew out of conversations---in several cases, across borders---between graphic artists and storytellers. This anthology itself is a result of a unique collaborative process between the publisher YODA PRESS, in proposing the idea and nurturing its result; GOETHE INSTITUTE/ MAX MUELLER BHAWAN, DELHI in providing processual and conceptual partnership to the project; and VISHWAJYOTI GHOSH, in mining, selecting and structuring the stories within the framework of a graphic narrative, mentoring the contributors, and designing the book.
