ABSTRACT
Life follows its own fragmentary way chequered in light and shade. Embroiled in its own cauldron it reaches the point of vortex when power comes into the fray and raises its ugly head. Bruised and battered, it seems to stumble in its own path. But the milk of the human kindness continues to make its pristine way amidst these changing tides. ‘Bhater Gandha’ by Prafulla Roy captures this slice of life as it sheds light on the subaltern section in Bihar, living on the edge, their endeavor to clutch at a meaning despite all the existing void. This is a review/ critique of the novel.
