Samaresh Basu Rachanabali 3  (Hardcover, Bengali, Samaresh Basu)

Who said that Samaresh Bose is the prince of Bengali literature. Inquisitors may consider this comment an exaggeration. But can it be denied, he was a great genius like Banaspati in literature! He rose from humble beginnings to the pinnacle of fame and establishment with a fighting spirit to turn adversity into favour. Just as his literature took various turns in subject-variety like a flowing river, so his life progressed in such diversities, spreading the colors of living. He had no strong morals or ideals about life. He was completely independent in his way of life and way of living. There was no loophole in the creation of Samaresh as life and literature became one. He himself wrote in one place: 'Whatever the responsibility of literature is, it is close to life. For the fact that life is greater than literature, the writer does not need to practice deeply, it is always very alive. Men and women of flesh and blood, who are connected to the soil in every sense, are the ones who come under the pull of his literature. He did not exclude anyone, did not return. He believed in physical relationship to find the bottom of people. As a result, he is likely to be misunderstood at any moment. Samaresh believed that to catch life as a snake, one must not only be a life artist, but also a life hunter. Sameresh was like that. The first phase or 'Udayan phase' of Samaresh's life artist, life hunter started from 'Nayanpurer Mati'. Although his first published novel is 'Uttaranga'. Although second in terms of composition. Samaresh changed the direction of the novel from the beginning to the end. Never stopped at one place. This third volume includes seven novels of the third phase of his creative life from 1962 to 1965: Durant Charai, Lakh Darbar, Two Aranya, Ferai, Gray Ayana, Swarnapinjar and Bibar. If 'Ganga' (1957) is the first milestone in Samaresh's literary life, then 'Bibur' (1965) is the second milestone. Samaresh's quest before touching this turning point, how many different faces he went through, passing through some level of experience, he reached his most controversial novel, as in other volumes, his comprehensive introduction has been prepared by Samaresh's lifelong friend and distinguished negotiator Professor Saroj Bandyopadhyay.
