Seller's Description:
New York. 1987. Dutton. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Wrinkled Dustjacket. 0525245448. 190 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Earl Tidwell. keywords: Literature India. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Satyajit Ray created two very popular characters in Bengali children's literature-Feluda, a sleuth, and Professor Shonku, a scientist. He was a prominent writer of science fiction in Bengali or any Indian language for that matter. He also wrote short stories which were published as volumes of 12 stories, always with names playing on the word twelve (for example Aker pitthe dui, or literally ‘Two on top of one'). Ray's interest in puzzles and puns is reflected in his stories, Feluda often has to solve a puzzle to get to the bottom of a case. The Feluda stories are narrated by Topshe, his cousin, something of a Watson to Feluda's Holmes. The science fictions of Shonku are presented as a diary discovered after the scientist himself had mysteriously disappeared. Ray's short stories give full reign to his interest in the macabre, in suspense and other aspects that he avoided in film, making for an interesting psychological study. Most of his writings have now been translated into English, and are finding a new group of readers. inventory #10100.
