Aranyak of the Forest

Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyaya (Author)

Synopsis There are no dense forests dose to human habitation. The forests lie in a distant land where, on the banks of the Godavari, the winds are burdened with the smell of the ripe-fallen jambu fruit. Aranyak is an account of that imaginary land.

About the author

Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyaya

Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyaya (1894-1950), a major novelist from Bengal, is one of our greatest writers. His Pather Panchali (â€˜Song of the Roadâ€™) has been immortalized through Satyajit Ray's film. Aranyak, composed between 1937-39, was based on Bibhutibhushanâ€™s long and arduous years in northern Bihar, where he came into contact with a part of the world that, even now, remains unknown to most of us.
