Indian author Banu Mushtaq and translator Deepa Bhasthi won the International Booker Prize for 'Heart Lamp,' a collection of 12 short stories about women's lives in southern India. This historic win marks the first time a collection of short stories and a book in Kannada has received the award. Mushtaq is the sixth female author to win since 2016, and Bhasthi is the first Indian translator to do so. The book emphasizes women's struggles against societal norms and aims to encourage more translations from South Asian languages. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
