1985 first published Bengali Novel 1 editions

Coming of ageLiterary fiction

'Pather Panchali' or 'Song of the Road' is a book wonderful beyond words & a must read for children as well as adults. Renowned Bengali author Bibhutibhusan Bandopadhyay portrays his own childhood days through the life of Apu, the lead character. The book is all about Apu's boyhood, his innocence, his amazement at every unknown flower growing by the country side, his indifference at his family's immense poverty, his days filled with childish imaginations, his friendship and fights with elder sister, Durga, his world of his own and his days of growing up. Bengal's natural beauty is captured by the author's unmatchable style of writing. His strong yet subdued choice of words brings alive every minute details only to leave the reader craving for more. preview by- Srutiparna Ghosh
