Songs of Our Swampland
Original price was: 400.00৳ .300.00৳ Current price is: 300.00৳ .
When the killing starts in Dhaka, the villagers know the army from West Pakistan will soon be in their area, but unlike the other young men, and his beloved step-sister Moni Banu, Kamal cannot join the resistance. Born with a hole for a mouth, most people, except Abbas Miah, the teacher who adopts him, his friends and Moni Banu, regard him as the village idiot. With Abbas Miah, Kamal embarks on a Noah’s ark journey, with the motley survivors of the massacre that inevitable comes, to find refuge in the distant floodplains until the war is over. Along with a bombastic old actor, the village mullah, the village cut-throat, two Hindu boatmen, a foul-mouthed old women, and a pious Islamist, who might just be a collaborator, Kamal discovers that there can be no escape from the war and the issues it raises. As our guide to the painful emergence of the new nation of Bangladesh, Kamal is forced both to observe the face of evil, the complexity of betrayal, and look within to discover whether he has the capacity for true community, whether he can follow the injunction: “If someone knocks on your door, you don’t ask who it is. You don’t even look at their face. You just do everything you can for them.

Songs of Rabindranath Tagore
Original price was: 800.00৳ .600.00৳ Current price is: 600.00৳ .
Baul is a mystico-religious cult which flourished on the soil of Bengal during the early process of Hindu-Buddhist-Islamic synergy. Its occult root may be traced back through time even to the pre-Vedic Tantric cults.
Lalon, the great exponent of Baul philosophy, belonged to the mainstream of the original Baul cult which, although a melting pot of Sufi, Tantric and Vaishnava world views, was an unique syncretism of Dehatatwa and mysticism. Lalon added a critical social dimension to the already spreading subaltern stream of consciousness. His songs inspired Rabindranath Tagore to ‘plunge into the river of beatitude.’ We are sure the readers of this book will also have the same opportunity through the able translation of Samir Dasgupta.
