Upanyas Samagra 11 by Sunil Gangopadhyay [Hardcover]

In the sixties, when the poet Sunil Gangopadhyay wrote his first novel 'Yuvakyuvati'ra Apan Khayale, without the urge to print anywhere, then various aspects of Bengali novels took place. We see the fictional characters of this period seeking liberation not in the shadows of romance, but in introspection, self-absorption. Young people are out to find the meaning of life. Just like themselves. However, the rhythm of life has been broken, words have lost their meaning. Yet the reader was not mistaken in recognizing their arti. This context was characterized by Sunil Gangopadhyay himself as 'unexplained unrest'. This restlessness was rooted in the deep pain of seeking experience. Fiction writer Sunil made his decisive debut in 'Atmaprakash'. The way he started his journey across the boundless geography of Bengali fiction from this novel is an amazing achievement. His journey has not stopped yet. Sunil Gangopadhyay is now an institution in himself in the world of Bengali novels. The knowledge of a successful novelist, the skill of characterisation, the creation of a perfect human figure, the sense of time, the sense of values, the skill of choosing a different story, the perplexity of asking questions about life, the search for truth, beauty - all these are his accomplishments. He is unique and brilliant in every aspect. His novels are the wealth of Bengali fiction. From his first novel to the novels written at the beginning of the 21st century, Sunil is equally alive and vibrant. In his hands, the art form of the novel got a new status. All the novels written by Sunil Gangopadhyay have been published in installments.
