Kuyashanagarir Upakhyan by Srijato [Hardcover]

This tale begins in a small cabin located at the edge of a fog-covered forest, where the princess of the city herself has been imprisoned. Her parents are no longer alive. Instead, the former prime minister has become the king of the mist city, under whose command the city is transforming before everyone's eyes. The once peaceful city is now preparing for war and setting up camps for outsiders. Anyone who has ever come to this kingdom from outside is being sent there.

There is another prisoner as well. His name is Biplobi. He has risen against the king's actions, gathered a group, and hence, has been put in the prison. The princess loves this revolutionary. She also opposes the new king.

Biplobi is sentenced to death after the trial. The princess's sorrow turns into melancholy. Her two enchanting companions fail to cheer her up, while the new king becomes sharper under the corrupt influence of an old scholar. At that very moment, a stranger arrives in the mist city. He introduces himself as a foreigner and reveals that he is a craftsman of memories. The story takes an unexpected turn from here.

In this tale, reality blends with magic at every turn, time is woven with threads of symbols, and politics mingles with fairy tales. Through dialogues and songs, imagery and narration, 'The Tale of Mist City' becomes an extraordinary story that is both contemporary and timeless, regional and universal.
