Ektu Ushnatar Janya by Buddhadeb Guha [Hardcover]

The mutual relationships between men and women are timeless yet eternally complex. Among those who love to analyze this subject from various angles, like a multifaceted diamond, one of the most powerful wordsmiths is Buddhadeb Guha. Just as nature serves as a strong backdrop in his writing, love is equally a primary and powerful foundation. This love is sometimes physical, sometimes a heavenly yet living feeling, transcending the body. Buddhadeb Guha knows well that the problems of love in modern life, like many other social issues, have become increasingly subtle and fragmented. And it is because he understands this that the varied, deep, and multicolored forms of love emerge so vividly in his works. 

The main character of his new novel is a modern writer, whose mental being seeks a woman in every sense - a true and complete woman. His wife, whom he married out of love, slowly drifts away, gradually turning her existence into non-existence. It is during this time that a vacation arrives - an admirer, a female reader. In the barren, thirsty life, she becomes like the shadowy embrace of a serene love, a promise to bring warmth to his frozen heart. But did she truly succeed? In the end, did Sukumar truly find happiness? Is life a simple equation? No, it is not. In this intense, profound novel of love, Buddhadeb Guha ultimately uncovers a great truth of life.
