ARTICLES / DISCUSSIONS |
 |
Ram Sharma says of the Nobel Prize Winning author: “Pinter is one of the few writers to have an adjective—Pinteresque—named for him. This paper attempts to map out the dialectic of ‘Pinteresque’ and its various contours in Pinter’s early play The Room.”
Other literary articles included in the section are by Santosh Kumar on Tendulkar’s
Kanyadaan, Shyam Babu on Karnad’s Tughluq and Urmila S on the study of mythologies.

BOOK REVIEWS... |
 |
| Reviewing Amitav Ghosh’s Sea of Poppies, Sakoon Singh writes, “His early association with the Subaltern Studies group has always induced him to speak from the vantage point of the historically marginalised. However the great thing about him is that he does not let this get in his way of telling a good story and telling it so well.”
Other reviews in the section are by Devaleena Das of Naina Dey’s Macbeth and by
Rajni Singh of RK Singh’s Sexless Solitude and Other Poems. |

FICTION... |
 |
Barnali Saha’s “Born into a Brothel” poignantly depicts life of young Gopal, who grows up in the repugnant, gloomy atmosphere of a brothel where his mother is a tart. Deep emotional scars of his boyhood years find cathartic expression when he grows up.
The other stories in the section are by Ashish Kumar, Jayita Sengupta and Saikumar Menon.

the banyans’ shadows enter / roadside gullies
