This is another contemporary, Bengali classic that I had to read in my college level. It again shows the Bengali culture, norms. However, I found it better than 'Hajar Bochor Dhorey'. At least, no one is beating wives here. In fact, the protagonist in this book married a cripple woman, and never demeaned her about it, as I thought I would be seeing. Besides, in this book the protagonist takes actions in the end. The issue with reading old classics is not the writing. The writing and all the human emotions and philosophy it portrays are great. But if there's no character I want to follow, even good writings will make me sleep.
