the battle trip to home

the intense BATTLE of seventh   day....

GOOD morning my imaginary readers (sorry). Happy Durga puja... The Goddess is back to defeat the Demon Mahishaur . BUT we Bongs celebrate PUJO in our own spirit of delicacies, new clothes and a list of endless....   But it would be over simplification of this great event...... Materialistic aspect is just one part of this Eternal battle of Good and Evil.  MAA Durga comes to visit her baaper bari ( parental house may be in plain translation.) too. THE most lovely aspect of the pujo is we receive her as a Mother and when she leaves we  see off  her as a DAUGHTER . But she comes here not only to kill one demon but to kill the demon inside us,,, in every heart- the selfish look, the unkind souls, the fake smiles and so on.... We celebrate this grand pujo every year for over centuries . But a Bong becomes Bengali only when he hears the sound of  Dhak,. The air has different joy, the heart feels to go and just let your self feel  the divinity of life, the beginning of life, and the never ending spirit....  The GOOD always Wins over EVIL...... the eternal battle is at seventh day today .... Happy SAPTAMI my friendsss.......   ten days of battle  seven down three more days to go.......

P.S- She will win again.

thanking you to bear with me

Book Review: When The River Sleeps by Easterine Kire.

Book Review: When The River Sleeps by Easterine Kire. Quote: Perhaps the answer lay not in striving but in being. In simply accepting that the loneliness would never be eliminated fully, but that one could deal with it by learning to treat it like a companion and no longer an adversary. Ville a hunter wakes up from a dream, ventures out to search for the heart-stone; that holds the power of the river that's asleep. And this stone is guarded by wailing-angry-widow-spirits. Many attempts have been made at magical realism in Indian English writing, and I didn't like them. My personal opinion is that magical realism needs a deep connection with nature, maybe never explicitly explored in the text, but the traces of that connection always shows in the words written. And I have always argued that North East India is the most fertile ground to plant the seeds of magical realism in. Easterine Kire, pens our deep connection with nature for the national readership to gawk...

Webcomic Review: One Day by Pan

Webcomic Review: One Day by Pan (link at bottom) Quote: You love the book The Dreamcatcher, right? Hum...right. That novel is really awesome! I've come to your store for three days. Finally, I finished it. What? You finished all of it? One Day is a short webcomic that's sweet, fluffy and warm like pancakes which leave you happy after you devour it. In a rainy city, Bella a bookworm college student meets a backpacker in the bookshop she works at. They bond over an out of print book that Bella hides behind shelves so that she can finish it before someone buys it. They walk around the city, have coffee in Bella's favourite café and talk about their looming future as working adult. Bella doesn't want to work in a corporate job but her family is strict, and her new friend has a little secret of his own. There are two side stories, of a tomboy teen named Luciana who has a crush on her basketball teammate, and how her friends try to d...

Unrequited? Nah, I am Bhaizoned!

[Another Bloagathon! This is for Women's Web  Finding Mr. Right Stories competition in tie up with the Woo App ] Love has been a constant in this blogger’s life, I have always been in love with the idea of love. Fueled by Mills and Boons initially, I always wanted a Tall, Dark, Handsome lover, well I was fifteen when I read my first Mills and Boon, the shift to Tall, Fair, Handsome Vampire happened quickly at sixteen, and I wanted a blood sucking creature for my husband. While Elizabeth Bennet said yes to Darcy, I sighed and imagined myself in her gowns and laces! Oh, how much I love those silly novels by lady novelist and how much I waste my monthly allowance on them!  The Twilight hangover had made a racist out of me and I would hanker after any cute fair guy with decent height! It was always the lips of the guys that caught my eyes first. By the time, I reached enlightened eighteen my eyes searched for Jang Keun Suk alike, Suk is the perfect blend of husk...
