Sotti Mithyer Majhkhane by Nillohit [Hardcover]

"The beloved wanderer of the Bengalis, Neel Lohit, never seems to age beyond twenty-seven. In the novel ‘Satyi Mithyer Majhkhane’ (Between Truth and Lies), Neel Lohit becomes perplexed by the intense question of a ten or eleven-year-old girl: “Neel Kaka, …where is my mother?” The girl's name is Rupsa. Rupsa’s mother, Bandana, had left her one day and disappeared into Dikshunyapur, presumed missing or dead by everyone. Defeated by the girl’s earnest longing, Neel takes her to Dikshunyapur, where in a dreamlike world, mother and daughter share a tearful reunion.

The novel ‘Bishwash Korun Chai Na-i Korun’ (Believe It or Not) carries a different kind of thrill. Neel Lohit, injured in a serious accident, loses consciousness. In his subconscious, a story starts forming, with Bollywood actress Rani Mukerji as the central character. Neelu, his friend Rupam, Rani, and her companion Saheli are kidnapped by abductors. The suspenseful yet romantic narrative revolves around how they are eventually rescued."
