Manoj Rupda’s I Named My Sister Silence has been translated from his Hindi novel Kaale Adhyaay published in 2015. With a change in the title, the translator Hansda Sowvendra Shekhar has also slightly realigned the focus of the book—from a dark episode of India’s recent history to a person whose silence told many tales.
