Koyeler Kachhe by Buddhadeb Guha [Hardcover]

The same Palamau that Sanjib Chattopadhyay immortalized in literature is presented anew to readers by this era's powerful storyteller Buddhadeb Guha in the novel "Koyeler Kachhe". Over a long period, not only has the appearance of Palamau changed, but a different perspective has given this creation new glory. Keeping in mind the old proverb "The wild are beautiful in the jungle, children in their mother's arms," it can be said further that others are beautiful elsewhere, like Buddhadeb Guha in the forest. Indeed, Buddhadeb Guha is unique in the wilderness. He once wrote that nature is his first love and, most importantly, a lasting love. His nature-centric writings do not just describe beauty but capture sounds and scents in words with a remarkable magic. This unique magic gives his writing a special appeal and an unmatched attraction. "Koyeler Kachhe" is one of Buddhadeb Guha's many acclaimed novels. Nature is undoubtedly the main character here, but the other mentioned individuals are no less intriguing. Mariana's love, Sumita Boudi's desire, Laltu's affection, Jagdish Pandey's ferocity, Ghoshda's artificiality, and Yashowanta's primitiveness—all flow like a river, vibrant with life. This novel shines with beauty, thrill, anxiety, and emotion.
