இந்த ஆடியோ புத்தகத்தைப் பற்றி
'One of the finest writers of his generation' Financial Times
From Booker-shortlisted author comes a wonderful fable, brought to life in audio with a beautiful musical score and narration by Ali Sethi.
Thousands of islands rise from the rivers' rich silts,
crowned with forests of mangrove, rising on stilts.
This is the Sundarban, where great rivers give birth;
to a vast jungle that joins Ocean and Earth.
Jungle Nama is a beautiful verse adaptation of a legend from the Sundarbans, the world's largest mangrove forest. It tells the story of the avaricious rich merchant Dhona, the poor lad Dukhey, and his mother; it is also the story of Dokkhin Rai, a mighty spirit who appears to humans as a tiger, of Bon Bibi, the benign goddess of the forest, and her warrior brother Shah Jongoli.
Jungle Nama is the story of an ancient legend with urgent relevance to today's climate crisis. Its themes of limiting greed, and of preserving the balance between the needs of humans and nature have never been more timely.
Written in Amitav Ghosh's interpretation of the traditional Bengali verse meter, poyar.
