Shabda Pore Tapur Tupur by Nabaneeta Dev Sen [Hardcover]

"This remarkable book by Nabaneeta Dev Sen features eight self-illuminating essays written on various subjects at different times. Remarkable, because each essay has a different occasion, but the goal is the same: to portray the changing colors of time, society, individual humans, and values like a moving picture. From this aim, the collection of essays includes analysis of external life leading to narratives of internal life, self-revelation in the guise of self-talk, and gifts of tears wrapped in laughter. These essays, with many unexpected twists like stories, repeatedly blend the main melody with a heartfelt harmony of mixed tones. Whether discussing the relationship between human consciousness and words, the kitchen, poetry, the life of a working woman, Western romance, or women's sense of humor, Nabaneeta Dev Sen's writing resonates inevitably in the reader's heartstrings and leaves a lasting echo of mixed tones."
