Drawing inspiration from an Indian myth, the story reflects the powerful force of the River Ganges, whose descent from the heavens was so intense that it could have destroyed the earth if not for the intervention of Lord Shiva, who tamed the torrent by catching it in his dreadlocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the Ganges approaches the Bay of Bengal, it frees itself and separates into thousands of wandering strands, resulting in the creation of the Sundarbans—an immense stretch of mangrove forest, a half-drowned land where the waters of the Himalayas merge with the incoming tides of the sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet against this backdrop, the novel introduces Daniel Hamilton, an eccentric and wealthy Scotsman who once attempted to create a utopian society in the heart of the Sundarbans, a place teeming with crocodiles, snakes, sharks, and man-eating tigers. In January 2001, a small ship arrives to conduct an ecological survey of this vast and little-known environment, and the scientists on board begin to trace the journeys of the descendants of Hamilton's utopian society.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe novel explores themes of survival, human nature, and the inescapable power of nature.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mehta Publishing House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49883068301616,"sku":"DRG.MehtaPublishingHouse__9789357200783","price":495.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/mehta-publishing-house-book-default-title-the-hungry-tide-41098486055216.jpg?v=1775962179","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/bn\/products\/the-hungry-tide-1","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
