Description

First published in 1990 in the original Bengali, a plate of white marble tells the tale of the ?new woman? of the post-Independence an era that just witnessed the independence of a nation bandana, the protagonist, though grieves over her husband early death, never conforms to the social connotation and ideals of ?widowhood?, thanks to her uncle. She dares to begin her life afresh in every possible sense. But naturally, the road proves to be full of thorns as she gradually faces bitterness from many quarters of the society. The only thing she clings to is her son, but once that anchor too is lost, she leaves behind the safe concrete walls of what she used to consider ?home?, only to work for a far greater cause?she joins a children?s home to work for those who need her the most. This first translation brings this significant Bengali novel with important social concerns to a wider audience.
