About the Book
This critical study examines the life, literary world, and historical context of Manindra Gupta (1926–2018), one of the major architects of Bangla poetry in the post-Jibanananda era. From his formative years in the natural landscapes of Barisal and Silchar, through the devastating Bengal Famine of 1943 and the violent aftermath of Partition, to his service in the armed forces—each phase profoundly shaped his poetic sensibility.
Gupta assimilated the finest elements of his predecessors while forging a distinctive style of his own. Moving away from conventional lyric effusion, he infused his poetry with critical thought, wide reading of world literature, and an unsentimental worldview. His deft use of the occult and the absurd gave his work a unique tonal texture.
Chirantan Sarkar’s analysis situates Gupta’s texts within their socio-historical milieu, offering readers a comprehensive interpretation of the poet’s life, works, and times. Spanning 264 pages, this paperback is an essential resource for students and lovers of modern Bengali poetry.
