Ishwarer Basa by Tilottama Majumdar [Hardcover]

"In the crowd at Howrah Station, Mithu's father let go of his hand. Before he could understand anything, Mithu's childhood became orphaned. Abused by the harsh world, Mithu found a place in Father Hopkins' orphanage, 'God's Home.' Mithu was given the opportunity to lead a respectable life through education. But did the cruelty of his father, which left deep wounds in his heart and mind, ever heal? What ultimately shapes a person—heritage, environment, or a mysterious combination of both that remains beyond explanation? Through the lives of Mithu and his companions, this novel explores that very search."
