Taranga Milaye Jay by Abhinandan Sarkar [Hardcover]

"When the tears of a loved one glitter in the moonlight, an extraordinary power descends upon the earth that envelops the lovers throughout their lives. This tale of human love intertwines with some peculiar characters: astrologer Kalpurush, cyber cafe owner Shishupal, truth-seeker Uddalak, old friend and patient Shankar Samaddar, and Anabil's sister Piu. On one side of the story is a yellowed suicide note, while on the other side lie countless bloodstained bodies of casuarina trees scattered on the streets. Will the self-absorbed Subhasis ever finish his game of hide and seek with himself, drawn towards Kasturi's solitary flat by some mysterious allure? Waves after waves of relationships march through life. The wave that rises today with tremendous power may vanish with time tomorrow. Perhaps its trace remains on the shore, but does the wave that has disappeared ever return?"
