Satyajit Ray and Bomkesh Bakshi are the two familiar names to me. Bengali literature is very deep. I have watched Bomkesh Sakshi serial. But never tried my hands on reading any of these detective’s work.
I have watched the Bomkesh Sakshi serial. But I never read any of these detective books. This is worth sharing with our Bengali friends.
You are right, it is a myth that quality fiction in the thriller genre is available only in the English language. There are so many good writers of this genre in Indian regional languages too. Of course, Byomkesh Bakshi and Feluda are characters that are legendary and have been immortalized by their creators.
India is nowhere less than the world in the thriller genre.. These look like a great read. Bomkesh bakshi I have heard about. But the rest all are new to me😀
I guess thriller novels does really make readers thrill on getting their hands on them to read no matter where they are in the planet. I got my love for thriller novels from my dad and while I’m into self-development books nowadays, every time I get my hands into a thriller book, I can’t stop until it ends. Hope this Indian thriller books have an english version of them.
I have watched the Bomkesh Sakshi serial and movie. I really liked watching and reading detective realted material. Thanks for sharing.
Reading thrillers gives an adrenaline rush and reading it in regional language is surely a plus, shall catch up their translations soon.
