Extraordinary story. Although the plot feels old and predictable, to a certain extent, it has got a nice human touch to it that it brings one to tears. Don't get me wrong, this is not some sad soap opera, but a story with a gripping narrative and a definite page-turner. If it was so good in English, I can only try and imagine how much more elegant the prose would have been in its original rendition, Bengali.

A must read.
