About the Book:
This compelling Bengali novel reflects the depth of human life, society, and emotions through the thoughtful lens of the author. Rooted in real-life observations and experiences, the narrative captures the complexities of ordinary people and their struggles, aspirations, and relationships.

The author, born in Burul village of South 24 Parganas in 1970, has a strong academic background in economics, having completed his graduation and post-graduation from the University of Calcutta and later earning a PhD from Vidyasagar University with research focused on unorganized labor. Currently serving as a senior associate professor, his deep understanding of society and grassroots realities is clearly reflected in his writing.

This is the author’s third novel, following his earlier works, and it continues his journey of exploring human values, rational thinking, and social responsibility. His belief that “humanity is the only true religion” resonates throughout the narrative.

Apart from writing, the author enjoys music, gardening, and traveling—interests that enrich his storytelling with vivid realism and sensitivity. His close connection with everyday life allows him to portray authentic characters and meaningful situations.

A thoughtful and socially relevant read, this book is ideal for readers who appreciate literature grounded in realism, human values, and intellectual depth.
