About the Book

Nirendranath Chakravarti (1924-2018) was one of the greatest poets of modern India. Through his nationally and internationally acclaimed poetry, as well as novels, short stories, essays, travelogues, and autobiographical writings, Nirendranath emerged as the premier bardic chronicler of the society and politics of postcolonial West Bengal. Nirendranath was a citizen-poet, a journalist and editor, as well as a builder and nurturer of cultural-educational institutions. He helped standardize modern Bengali orthography, diction, and prosody. He was a recipient of the Sahitya Akademi Award and Fellowship. Nirendranath's writings have been translated into English and several Indian languages.
