Bokul Trilogy , Hardcover , Novel
A journey finds closure, the journey of Subarnalata's progeny and successor Bakul who questions the outcome of the newfound emancipation of women in a new, liberated Bengal, who censures her successors silently for ignoring the thin line between a woman's freedom, her empowerment and anarchy, a terrible outburst when freedom gives birth to decadence. A journey where she searches for the meaning and resonance of love in the most unexpected places, while burning in a fire of her own making.
