Description
The story of the birth of a country which tore its people apart Born in East Bengal to a Bihari father and a Sylheti mother, Zebunnessa Rahim grows up in a sheltered world. It is an idyllic life sneaking behind her parents backs to meet her half-Scottish lover, gazing enviously at her friends dancing at parties in their tight skirts, enjoying summers eating mangoes at her politician grandfather s villa. Until 1971, when new borders are defined between east and west, Bengali and Urdu, and she becomes at once a victim of both sides. Powerful and evocative, this first novel explores the atrocities that went handin- hand with the liberation war of Bangladesh, the rebellion that created a country even as it tore its families apart. A fictional take on life in East Pakistan before its liberation and the birth of Bangladesh There are very few books on Bangladesh in the market; none has made an impact since Tahmima Anam s A Golden Age
