زیر نظر کتاب "سنگ و خشت" کنہیا کپور کے مزاحیہ مضامین کا مجموعہ ہے۔ اس مجموعے شامل زیادہ تر مضامین کا مواد شعرا و ادبا کی زندگی سے لیا گیا ہے۔ اور یہ دکھانے کی کوشش کی گئی ہے کہ یہ برگزیدہ لوگ بھی مضحکہ خیز پہلو رکھتے ہیں۔ مگر انداز ایسا کہ جس سے اصلاح و تلقین مقصود ہو۔ کنھیا لال کپور ایک اچھے مزاح نگار ہیں ان کی تحریروں میں سماج کی نا ہموار یوں پر شدید طنز ملتا ہے۔ وہ نہایت ہی سادہ اور آسان نثر لکھتے ہیں تاہم لفظوں کے درمیان طنز کی کاری لہریں رواں ملتی ہیں۔
