In its unique style, this book presents a chronicle of
an ordinary middle class Bengali woman who penned down stories of her
life but preferred to be anonymous to the reader. The pages of this
cathartic diary carry the pathos of a dying woman’s sufferings out of
rootlessness that she encountered in different junctures of her life.
This is a story narrating the ups and downs of a little girl’s journey
towards womanhood that might apparently sound insipid, but when read
closely, is an account of a pervasive social canvas over a certain
time period in history. The presentation of this anonymous
autobiographical memoir before the readers by an individual other than
the author herself adds a distinctive flavour to this book. More
attractive it gets when some illustrations made by the author are
included in it as pictorial expressions of her emotions, perceptions
and thoughts.

Narrates a breathtaking journey into the inner basin of the eastern Nepal Himalayas and the ancient Tibetan villages there.
This journey was inspired by historic Tibet-expedition of Pandit Sarat Chandra Das in the nineteenth century.
It retraces and reimagines the ancient and modern routes, and maps the socio-cultural spectrum of Indo-Tibetan confluences. The description of traditional pathways to the north-western base camp of Kanchenjunga and the sublime experience at Pangpema give this journey a unique dimension. The dangerous trails, the sublimity of the mountains, the gomphas, the soulful music of life in the remote Himalayas make this a book to be cherished.
