After reading only Do Phool and Bhaktin, I am not qualified to pass judgment on Mahadevi Verma's place in Hindi literature. Critics have already done that. What I can say is that I am beginning to understand why readers continue to return to her rekhachitras.
In these two sketches alone, she devotes entire chapters to people whom society would scarcely notice. An orphaned young mother carrying a burden she never chose. A village servant whose life would never find a place in history books. Yet she writes about both with such attention, seriousness, and humanity that they remain compelling nearly a century after they were written.
Few writers can make a flower feel significant. Fewer still can make an ordinary village woman unforgettable. Mahadevi Verma does both. That seems to me a rare literary gift.
If these two sketches are representative of the rest of Rekhachitra, then I would go so far as to say that anyone with even a passing interest in literature, not merely Hindi literature, should read it at least once in their lifetime.
P.S.
I discovered Rekhachitra through a post on @devinamehra's timeline. When someone whose reading I respect mentions that she has read a book more than once, curiosity is only natural. I am glad I got hold of a copy.
What has surprised me most is that this is not a book one can read casually. Almost every line demands complete attention. The remarkable thing is that Mahadevi Verma accomplishes in ten or fifteen pages what many accomplished writers might require a novel's length to achieve. Yet nothing feels rushed or incomplete. That, to me, is one of the clearest signs of literary mastery.
Our leaders have taught us Indians how to find an opportunity in a crisis.
