Smit the Great

We have got a heavy course of studies. I hardly find time to study literature outside our syllabus. We have in our Bengali text books extracts from the works of many great authors. These have created in me a taste for reading the works of those authors. Whenever I get an opportunity I read their works.

My favourite author and his works

I have read some works of, Rabindranath and others. But Bankim Chandra is my favourite author. He wrote a large number of novel and fiction.

Why I like Bankim Chandra

I have read some of the novel and fiction of Bankim Chandra . They appeal to me most. In his novel and fiction Bankim Chandra has given expression with a sympathetic heart to the joys and sorrows of the common people around us. This is scarcely found in the works of Rabindranath. The author must have personal experience. He must be in their midst and share their joys and sorrows. Then only he can give in his books a true picture of the common people--picture of their joys and sorrows, picture of their virtues and vices, picture of their hopes and aspirations. I think no other author before him has given a true picture of the rural life of Bengal so vividly as we find it in his jugalanguriya and some other fiction.fgjcfgjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj fgyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy ertet g c gf g fg fg g er tu t sg s v xd gh zfh d h fg d sd f
