Tar Baghoa by Buddhadeb Guha [Hardcover]

Some called it "Tarbaghua," while others named it "Pila Baba." Everyone in the Palashbana slum of Palamau had seen it— the giant tiger. It got its name "Tarbaghua" because it roamed the vast open fields or "tar" in the morning and evening. Since the tiger's color was yellow, many called it "Pila Baba." In the hills and forests of Palashbana, there were two kings— one was Tarbaghua, the tiger, and the other was the human king, Tikayet. Both respected each other greatly. However, a misunderstanding arose suddenly, leading to a tragic outcome.

This gripping hunting tale, written by Buddhadeb Guha, is not about Riju or Rudra. It is based on one of the author's own childhood experiences— "Tarbaghua." During his first year of college, he went bird hunting in Palashbana with his friend Ted. Strangely, they were requested to kill a man-eater tiger, and in their attempt to fulfill this request, they encountered one thrilling experience after another. The story of "Tarbaghua" is filled with excitement and suspense.

The book features numerous illustrations by Sanjay Bhattacharya, adding to its vivid narrative.
