Samagra Prabandha Nibandha O Tukro Gadya by Jibanananda Das [Hardcover]

"Some people believe that literature can exist independently of the society and history of its time, relying solely on life's enchantment or sometimes mere imagination. I think such a view of literature is too pure. While life's and the universe's mysteries are most extensive, even the most extraordinary imagination manifests within a person, requiring it to be grounded in reality when expressing itself in human society. One must be aware of history and society. Those who possess this awareness and imaginative talent are capable of creating the best literature."
