Description

This is the 20th Anniversary edition which came out on 15th September 2014 with a new translation by Anchita Ghatak.


Lajja, the controversial novel by Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasrin, is a savage indictment of religious extremism and man's inhumanity to man. Unremittingly dark and menacing, the novel exposes the mindless bloodthirstiness of fundamentalism and brilliantly captures the insanity of violence in out time. This was translated from the Bengali by Tutul Gupta.



Publication Date: September 15, 2014
A savage indictment of religious extremism and man’s inhumanity to man, Lajja was
banned in Bangladesh, but became a bestseller in the rest of the world.
The Duttas—Sudhamoy and Kironmoyee, and their children, Suranjan and Maya—
have lived in Bangladesh all their lives. Despite being members of a small, vulnerable
Hindu community, they refuse to leave their country, unlike most of their friends
and relatives. Sudhamoy believes with a naive mix of optimism and idealism that his
motherland will not let him down. And then, on 6 December 1992, the Babri Masjid
is demolished. The world condemns the incident, but its immediate fallout is felt most
acutely in Bangladesh, where Muslim mobs begin to seek out and attack Hindus. The
nightmare inevitably arrives at the Duttas’ doorstep, and their world begins to fall apart.
