Michael o Vidyasagar

Description

Two of the brightest stars of 19th-century Bengal—Michael Madhusudan Dutta and Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar—shaped the Bengali language and literature in profound ways. And yet, they couldn’t have been more different in character.
Vidyasagar was a man of discipline, order, and quiet strength. Michael, on the other hand, lived a life of flamboyance, excess, and financial chaos—often finding himself in dire need, turning to none other than Vidyasagar for support. And time and again, Vidyasagar, ever generous and large-hearted, extended his help without hesitation.
‘Michael o Vidyasagar: Dui Merur Dui Bondhu‘ tells the moving story of their unlikely friendship—marked by deep mutual respect, compassion, and a bond that defied all odds.

Raja Bhattacharjee has woven a beautiful narrative of two contrasting souls united by brilliance and humanity.
