This is a beautiful book, skillfully written. It gives you insight into so many aspects of life. It informs about Bengali culture, it teaches about relationships, and is so beautifully written that you are carried along effortlessly in every story and immediately want to start the next one. I found myself telling the stories to friends in order to encourage them to read it also. Anyone who has a family will see themselves in some part of these stories. Highly recommend.
