Stream Within: Short Stories by Contemporary Bengali Women

Teacher of English. Swati Ganguly

4.9/5 (23835 ratings)

Description:This collection explores a direct link between women’s writings–from India and some from Bangladesh too–and the turbulent milieu that inspired them. The stories speak of the tragedy of violent displacement, of Partition, of riots, of wars, of deprivation, of middle class and working class lives, on both sides of the border. They speak of women as agents who reclaim the history of the time as their own, revealing, as the editors suggest, how women’s writing creates an alternative discourse that has the power to destabilize the status quo. The editors present thirteen writers: Jyotirmoyee Debi, Ashapurna Debi, Sabitri Ray, Sulekha Sanyal, Chhobhi Basu, Rajlakshmi Debi, Jehanara Imam, Mahasweta Debi, Nabaneeta Dev Sen, Purabi Basu, Bani Basu, Selina Hossain, Anita Agnihotri and Nasreen Jahan.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
