Our Latest release in Braille, Bankim Chandra's Durgesh Nandini

Here is the news about our latest release. Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay wrote Durgesh Nandini in 1865. It was the first novel in Bengali literature. Bankim Chandra also wrote another novel before this one, Rajmohan's Wife. but this was in English. We are happy to announce that we have brought out the Braille version of Durgesh Nandini. Acclaimed as a historical novel, a genre Bankim Chandra specialised in, this novel is still one of the most popular books in Bengali literature. A strong narrative woven inside a neatly constructed plot, the story has a sustained appeal to the readers. In spite of the presence of historical characters of 16th century Bengal, we remember the story for the celestial love of Ayesha for Jagat Singha. Ayesha's love does not reach the climax the readers want to see. It reigns supreme not for its fulfillment, but for its lack of it, for its endurance and dedication.

Complete in two Braille volumes, it costs Rs. 158. Interested readers can purchase their copies from us on prior intimation. They can also collect it by post. So, collect your copy without delay. You can also check our list of audio books for titles in audio library.
