Danga, Deshbhag o Udbastu Somoy: Paschim theke Purbobanga starts with a summary of Dibyendu Palit’s short story Alam’s Own House. The use of this particular story by the editor is significant because it is a story in the crowd of many fictional narratives of partition, which has the migration from West Bengal to East Pakistan and its consequences as its subject which is also the core issue dealt in this book. Anannya Das writes.
