  জীবনের লক্ষ্যটা অনেকের কাছেই পরিষ্কার থাকে না। না থাকে তাদের কাছে একটা কমপ্লিট রোডম্যাপ। না থাকে নিজের অনন্ত শক্তিতে বিশ্বাস। ফলে বিভিন্ন ঘাত-প্রতিঘাত এসে তাদের ফুটিফাটা করে ছাড়ে। গল্পে মূল চরিত্র প্রীতমের সঙ্গে দেখা হয় এক অশীতিপর যুবকের। কাকতালীয়ভাবে সে জানতে পারে সেই অবাঙালি তার এন আর আই বন্ধু বিকাশেরও পরিচিত। গড়ে ওঠে বন্ধুত্ব। একটা স্বনির্ভর এনজিওর মাধ্যমে একটি আদর্শ স্কুল খোলার উদ্দেশ্যে তারা এগোতে থাকে, যেখানে পড়ুয়ারা হাতেকলমে কাজ শিখে ও মূল্যবোধের দীক্ষা নিয়ে সম্পূর্ণ স্বনির্ভর হয়ে দিকে দিকে ছড়িয়ে পড়বে। একই সঙ্গে চলতে থাকে জীবনের বিবিধ রহস্য উন্মোচন। তারা বুঝতে পারে আশীর্বাদ শব্দটির প্রকৃত অর্থ। এক বিপথগামী কবি বন্ধুও তাঁর অনুপ্রেরণায় আত্মহননের পথ থেকে সরে আসে। সংসারী হয়ে ওঠে। জিজ্ঞাসু প্রীতম সেই সিঁড়ির খোঁজ করতে থাকে যা তাকে নিয়ে যেতে পারে সূর্যের ভেতরে। তার অনন্ত সম্ভারের গর্ভে। সে কি শেষপর্যন্ত পাবে সেই সন্ধান? সে কি সত্যিই পারবে তার স্বপ্নের স্কুল স্থাপন করতে?

  CONTEMPORARY GLOBAL FICTION by Sushmindar Jeet Kaur

  ₹950.00 Original price was: ₹950.00.₹750.00Current price is: ₹750.00.

  In a world where boundaries are blurred and cultures clash, Contemporary Global Fiction opens a doorway into the complex experiences and stories of our time. With tales that traverse continents and cultures, this anthology captures the turbulent realities facing individuals worldwide. From shifting family structures and rising social inequities to the challenges of migration and identity, the stories delve into the universal struggles that shape modern life. This collection explores issues of migration and cultural dissonance with sensitivity, such as in Ravinder Singh Sodhi’s “Why Did Philip Flip,” which contrasts Eastern and Western cultural perspectives, and Avtar S. Sangha’s incisive “Keerti, Kalicharan and Karla,” which examines the tensions migration brings to both individuals and communities. Each story reflects a vital conversation on coexistence and understanding in a globalized world. The book also sheds light on movements for social justice, with narratives addressing themes like disability, caregiving, and gender inequality. “Davina” by Achingliu Kamei and “May, the Month of May” by Molly Joseph depict the emotional journey of parents of differently-abled children, while O. P. Arora and Harmanjot Kaur explore gender and caste inequities, questioning deep-rooted social norms and heralding hope for change. With loneliness now labeled a potential global epidemic, this volume also reflects on isolation in the digital age. Someeta Das’s “Ashray, The Refuge” offers a compelling story of resilience, turning loneliness into a source of strength and inspiration. The anthology’s young writers add fresh perspectives, such as Soumee Bhaumik’s gripping depiction of addiction in “Ordinary People” and Sargun Singh’s “A Change in Perspective,” which confronts the harsh reality of war. Edited with care by Dr. Sushmindar Jeet Kaur, Contemporary Global Fiction is an insightful anthology that captures the heartbeat of our times. This powerful collection provides readers not only a retreat into fiction but also a poignant reflection of the world, illuminating its challenges and its beauty, one story at a time.
