Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When she lands in Calcutta's Sealdah railway station on a humid day in 1949, Amala Manna has managed to flee from the communal violence in her village, but not from all her trials. Within moments of crossing over to India as a refugee from East Pakistan, she loses Kartik, her younger brother. Thanks to a group of young volunteers, Amala finds her way to a refugee camp in Gariahata where she meets Manas Dutta, who is the leader of the volunteer group. Despite the sordid camp life, Amala finds sustenance in her quest to find Kartik and the new familial bonds the camp allows her to forge with complete strangers. With dwindling official support, the situation in the camp deteriorates, and the refugees take things into their own hands. They establish Bijoy Nagar - literally meaning Victory Colony - by occupying a zamindar's vacant plot of land. This dramatic event is a harbinger of radical shifts in Amala's personal life.'A compelling story, set against a Calcutta that's vividly depicted in the smallest of details.'- Madhulika Liddle'Bengal comes alive in all its sensory immediacy.'- Neelum Saran Gour.

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. My Days with Ramkinkar Baij, an English translation of the original Bengali Shilpi Ramkinkar Alaapchari (In Conversation with Artist Ramkinkar) is the result of the author's long and close association with Ramkinkar Baij, one of modern India's finest sculptors. This was an association that brings forth many cherished memories of the days in Santiniketan, when Ramkinkar was at his prolific and creative best. As Dr Bandyopadhyay puts it, 'The very meaning of Ramkinkar is a huge amount of enterprise and a tumult of joy. Those who came slightly closer to him occasionally got to see another avatar-a serious, sombre, Ramkinkar, self-imprisoned within an introspective castle.' This book gives the reader a chance to delve into the mind of this great man and share some special moments of his life.
