Description To Books হাজার চুরাশির মা
Devi, said to be as much of an inspirational activist as a writer, did bring to the surface various social issues that we tend to ignore. The plot is interesting, and the characters, complex. Sujatha's discovery of herself as she relives her son's death is intense as it is relate-able. Though i felt the an iota of Sujatha's "awakening" in my self as i read the book, the author's condescension towards the reader was clear. As I result, though I understood Devi's characters and found them understandable, I disliked the idea of the author, and was irritated every time that snobbishness came through. Mahasweta Devi must have had disregard for all those who lacked the political and social fervor that she possesses-- this is clear in her potrayal of all those on the "outside". Brathi, Somu's mother, Nandini and Sujatha, are on the inside- they have experienced some sort of empathy for the cause. However, what Devi needs to realise is that not everyone can feel the same passion for the same cause as her. Thus, she has no right to judge her readers, and those around her. While i do believe in equality and justice, I do not think forcing ideas on others is correct. Mother of 1084 deals with the importance of awakening one's conscience, yet the intrusion of the author's condescending voice almost deters the reader.Specify Books Concering হাজার চুরাশির মা

A most poignant portrayal of a mother's emotional devastation at the loss of her son. Vrati, Sujata's son, a socialist ideologue and his friends are killed by a mob in state sponsored cleansing of anti-establishment youth movement of 1970s Calcutta. Sujata's deep love for her son is juxtaposed with Divyanath's (Vrati's womanising father) nonchalance and embarrassment at Vrati's deeds. Sujata meets Samir's (Vrati's friend, killed with him) poor mother and Nandini (Vrati's love and comrade) andA heart wrenching tale of a mother who has lost her son to a cause for which no one can sympathize.An insightful read which is still as relevant.
I always like the writing style of Mahasweta Devi. Its a nice book telling the pain of mother who lost her son.........
boring book.
The novel clearly serves two purposes. Firstly,it gives different faces of a mother and secondly the grave situation which gives birth to the naxal movement and the need to give human consideration to them are stressed.Understanding, loving, angry, confident, rebel, one who seeks justicedifferent faces of mother is beautifully pictured in the novel. The climax of the novel clearly shows the ignorant response the motherly feelings receive in an unjust society.On the other hand,the reason how a
