Indira Goswami occupies an important place in literature. Her short stories have varied themes which range from nineteen thirties to the present time. Her stories have universality. They deal with the harsh social reality. Dr. Goswami wielded the pen not only to highlight the matters of violence but also took the initiative to persuade the banned ULFA to come to the negotiating table. Her stories give rare insights into the human life and predicament. The agony of her life created in her a deep rooted sympathy for humanity at large. The present paper studies the human sensibility in her short stories.
