I couldn't bring myself to like the characters. They appear weak, whiny, and stupid and are passive spectators than initiators in the story. Maybe that's a realistic depiction of people during those times, but I simply didn't like them as people.
আমার সুনীল গঙ্গোপাধ্যায়ের আত্মজীবনীমূলক লেখাগুলো এত ভাল লাগে কেন বুঝি না! প্রতিটি লেখাই আমার ভীষণ প্রিয়। এটাই বোধহয় না পড়ার ছিল শুধু, সেটাও পরে ফেললাম। পঞ্চাশ-ষাটের দশকের সময়টায় show more শিল্প-সাহিত্য-রাজনীতি ভালভাবেই এসেছে। তবুও মনে হল লেখক আরো কিছু ডিটেইল যোগ করতে পারতেন :( show less
The Lonely Monarch has a neat storyline, simple in presentation and fast in pace as several of Bengal's cultural icons interact with each other. If a book can end with the Monarch of Bengali Theatre embracing the would be future King - Satyajit Ray, you should never expect less.
