Written by Alokparna and translated by Bishnupriya Chowdhuri, “No One as Rano Biswas” is a stunning example of modern Bengali experimental storytelling. A rather polarizing read and a gritty communicator of societal truths,this book dares us to look into our own little worlds and recognize where we, as a race, may be going wrong… A book like no other.
