"They Must Die" is an undimmed corpus of delirious crime stories based on the international canvas. Its capstone feature is the opaque side of human nature. While facing real-life ataxia, some persons become victims of psychological disorders and anxiety. They attempt to turn the wheel of destiny in their way and put themselves under a spell of psychosis or schizophrenia for revenge or to escape and obviously target the serene environment of society around them. The atrocious criminal stories, needless to say, grab a frizzing hold of human mind quickly. To spike, this snare in ascending direction till the end has been a pink skill of the writers and the story as well. This corpus of delirious criminal stories depicts this flair almost on every page on. The twined state of the psychogenic mind before the crime and the skillful use of these psychodynamics are exhibited in the anthology “They Must Die”. The spooked crime even though has been done with perilous sneakiness, and it is negative or destructive in nature too but an acute care has been taken here in particular by neutralizing the sublimation of these crimes. Of course, through the instantiating description, we strongly believe that readers will be utterly screwed down with the stupefying touchstone of this compilation of stories. This creation is a sapient collection of four delirious crime stories and it depicts a criminal social canker as a threat to the civilized society, so…. they must die.

Chauhan's writing is resistance literature. It echoes the harrowing screams of a people long suppressed. Fear and Other Stories is a reminder of the inherent dangers of the Dalit life, a life subjected to unimaginable violence and terror even in its most mundane moments. In this collection of short stories, veteran Gujarati writer Dalpat Chauhan narrates these lived experiences of exasperation and anger with startling vividity. His characters chronicle a deep history of resistance, interrogating historical, mythological and literary legends, foregrounding the perspectives of the disenfranchised. Chauhan deftly wields his prose to counter dominant narratives, pointing out gaps and voicing the silences within. In ?The Payback, for a change, we see famished savarnas begging Dalit families for food that they scorn otherwise. The eponymous Fear follows the heroic but doomed resistance of Dalit youths fighting against savarna men with the 'right' to enter their homes and molest women inside. And the allegorical Cold Blood features a doctor who tries to leave behind his identity with his surname, only to be reminded of it when the savarnas accept his blood, but not water from his hands. Hemang Ashwinkumar's nimble translation introduces the English reader to Chauhan's heart-wrenching stories while unmasking a rural Gujarat unrecognizable from its supposedly vibrant idylls. His introduction to the book not just contextualises Chauhan's work, but is also a touching and thought-provoking commentary on the larger canvas of Dalit literature.
