Superhuman River: Stories of the Ganga by Bidisha Banerjee [Hardcover]
The Ganga River, revered as a goddess and one of the world’s most significant rivers, flows over 2,500 kilometers from the Himalayas through India and into the Sundarbans delta in Bangladesh. It sustains half a billion people and nurtures historic cities like Varanasi. Despite its sacred status, the river faces severe pollution, endangering species like the Ganga River dolphin. India’s Namami Gange initiative was launched in 2014 to restore the river, but progress has been limited. Bidisha Banerjee’s Superhuman River explores the Ganga’s myth, ecology, and current challenges, offering a deep, updated perspective on this unique river.
