It returns in the folds of memory, in people's gaze, in the spaces between words, and within silence. The stories in this book hold the humiliations of childhood, strange loves, the clash between science and superstition, the unfamiliar faces of familiar people, and moments that, once they occur, can never be fully left behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-contrast-2-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-b8facea63e76f371084ad50d35231aa2\">Ujan Kal is not a memoir, but memory is its language. It is not a book of philosophy, yet it raises the question\u2014do we truly move with time, or does time walk through us?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-contrast-2-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5d729671b34fb813eff06bd4dc38d6f6\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-contrast-2-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5d729671b34fb813eff06bd4dc38d6f6\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-contrast-2-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-82a9e1e48fa1d04289cbe1183e69fdda\"><strong>Publication information<\/strong>: Publication details will be added soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0997\u09b2\u09cd\u09aa \u09b8\u0982\u0995\u09b2\u09a8 &#8216;\u0989\u099c\u09be\u09a8 \u0995\u09be\u09b2&#8217; &#8216;\u0989\u099c\u09be\u09a8 \u0995\u09be\u09b2&#8217; \u098f\u09ae\u09a8 \u0995\u09bf\u099b\u09c1 \u09ae\u09be\u09a8\u09c1\u09b7\u09c7\u09b0 \u0997\u09b2\u09cd\u09aa\u2014\u09af\u09be\u09b0\u09be \u099c\u09c0\u09ac\u09a8\u09c7\u09b0 \u09ae\u09c2\u09b2 \u09b8\u09cd\u09b0\u09cb\u09a4\u09c7\u09b0 \u09b8\u0999\u09cd\u0997\u09c7 \u09ad\u09c7\u09b8\u09c7 \u09af\u09be\u09af\u09bc\u09a8\u09bf, \u09ac\u09b0\u0982 \u0995\u0996\u09a8\u09cb \u09aa\u09cd\u09b0\u09b6\u09cd\u09a8 \u0995\u09b0\u09c7\u099b\u09c7, \u0995\u0996\u09a8\u09cb \u09a5\u09c7\u09ae\u09c7\u099b\u09c7, \u0995\u0996\u09a8\u09cb \u0986\u09ac\u09be\u09b0 \u09b8\u09ae\u09af\u09bc\u09c7\u09b0 \u0989\u09b2\u09cd\u099f\u09cb \u09a6\u09bf\u0995\u09c7 \u09b9\u09be\u0981\u099f\u09be\u09b0 \u09b8\u09be\u09b9\u09b8 \u0995\u09b0\u09c7\u099b\u09c7\u0964 \u09b8\u09ae\u09af\u09bc \u0995\u0996\u09a8\u09cb \u09b8\u09cb\u099c\u09be \u09aa\u09a5\u09c7 \u099a\u09b2\u09c7 \u09a8\u09be\u0964 \u09b8\u09c7 \u09ab\u09bf\u09b0\u09c7 \u0986\u09b8\u09c7 \u09b8\u09cd\u09ae\u09c3\u09a4\u09bf\u09b0 \u09ad\u09be\u0981\u099c\u09c7, \u09ae\u09be\u09a8\u09c1\u09b7\u09c7\u09b0 \u09a6\u09c3\u09b7\u09cd\u099f\u09bf\u09a4\u09c7, \u0995\u09a5\u09be\u09b0 \u09ab\u09be\u0981\u0995\u09c7, \u09a8\u09c0\u09b0\u09ac\u09a4\u09be\u09b0 \u09ad\u09c7\u09a4\u09b0\u0964 \u098f\u0987 \u09ac\u0987\u09af\u09bc\u09c7\u09b0 \u0997\u09b2\u09cd\u09aa\u0997\u09c1\u09b2\u09cb\u09a4\u09c7 \u0986\u099b\u09c7\u2014\u09b6\u09c8\u09b6\u09ac\u09c7\u09b0 \u0985\u09aa\u09ae\u09be\u09a8, \u0985\u09a6\u09cd\u09ad\u09c1\u09a4 \u09aa\u09cd\u09b0\u09c7\u09ae, \u09ac\u09bf\u099c\u09cd\u099e\u09be\u09a8 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-71","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_hostinger_reach_plugin_has_subscription_block":false,"_hostinger_reach_plugin_is_elementor":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/biswajitchatterjee.in\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/71","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/biswajitchatterjee.in\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/biswajitchatterjee.in\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biswajitchatterjee.in\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/biswajitchatterjee.in\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=71"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/biswajitchatterjee.in\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/71\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":526,"href":"https:\/\/biswajitchatterjee.in\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/71\/revisions\/526"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/biswajitchatterjee.in\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=71"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
