Soft cover. Zustand: New. A MAID IN THE CITY, A RICE FARMER IN HER VILLAGE, RACONTEUR, SURVIVORKARNO'S DAUGHTER IS THE LIFE STORY OF A REMARKABLE WOMAN. This is a biography of Buttermilk, the author's maid in Calcutta. She wishes to remain anonymous; Buttermilk is one of her nicknames. Her life straddles the city, the village and the suburbs. It brims with stories of betrayal and devastation, but also with unexpected aesthetics and love in unlikely places. This story is a weave of many threads: her family across multiple generations, her city work and her struggle as a rice farmer. We follow her across five decades as she forges a life with creativity and grit, and one antenna permanently tuned to the land. We witness her tackle brutal pressure and yet remain free of callus. With wit and spirit, Buttermilk lives an uproarious trapeze act, without a safety net from god or country. But for how long?

Soft cover. Zustand: As New. Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was aware of the potentially volatile content of Char Adhyay, his last and thirteenth novel, written when he was seventy two. Who is a real patriot? Is liberation to be achieved by rhetorical slogans, ascetic militarism, conformity and ruthless external discipline? How can one be true to one's self in the making of a nation? Questions that make this tragic story of two lovers central to our times. The only existing English translation (edited ruthlessly for a foreign readership) was serialised in 1936 and came out as a book as late as 1950. This is the first complete translation of the Bangla novel. The Afterword by Rimil Bhattacharya relates the controversial history of the novel and draws the reader's attention to the poetry in this book.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Two neighbours meet as little children in Patuakhali town, deep in the delta where the mammoth Meghna breaks up into a myriad branches to meet the sea, in East Bengal. The year is 1922; the boy, Shishu, is eight, and the girl, Noni, eleven. Swiftly, a special bond forms between the two, strengthened by a shared love of books and poetry. However, in 1927, their paths divergeShishu, a member of the revolutionary outfit Tarun Sangha, stabs a police inspector to death and has to spend seventeen years in jail; his Noni-di is married off at the age of sixteen. Yet, they continue to exchange letters, and Shishu keeps a notebook, a diary of sorts, in which he writes poems meant for his friend and first love through the years, about his life, his feelings, and his struggles. He is released in 1945, but the Partition tsunami rips the two friends apart. They lose all contact, and the connection that held them together over all these years is broken. In 1991, they miraculously reconnect. Noni and her refugee family from East Bengal have survived and she has gone on to have a large family, with children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Shishu, on the other hand, has remained single. He gives her his notebook in which he had continued to write all these years, an offering to his friend and lifelong muse. This story is based on the life of Rimli Sengupta's Dida, her paternal grandmother. The notebookscuffed and old, its pages curled by time and water damage, yet surprisingly intactremained a prized possession of her grandmother's till the time of her passing and, with it, Sengupta pieces together the story of Shishu and Noni. In A Lost People's Archive, she masterfully fuses her imagination with history, both personal and national, to narrate a story of two friends, and their passage through pre-Independence India, the Partition, a refugee exodus, communism, and through the political and social landscape of Bengal. And, at the root of it all, this story is about Bangals, the displaced East Bengalis and the narrative of their fractured land and lives.
