Asun, Banglay Phiri by Ashish Lahiri [Paperback]

In the wake of post-Left globalization and the unabashed resurgence of rightist arrogance, the Bengali bhadralok is forced to refashion its cultural identity. Through a series of no-holds-barred satires, this enlarged second edition tries to dissect the whole ethos of the post-Independence Bengali bhadralok culture, in the process bursting many a myth, all the while suppressing the inevitable nostalgia, maybe in vain.
