[Reader-list] Performance of two stories by Sarnath Banerjee

[Amitabh Kumar]

You are cordially invited to the performance of two stories by  
Sarnath Banerjee, along with comic book images and speech with the  
additional gimmick of sound. Please come in full strength with  
cousins and neighbours for a wholesome immersive experience, such as  
rarely seen since the Pupul Jayakar era.

Colonel's Brain:
Tragicomedy or comical tragedy of Dr LM Satpathy, head, department of  
forensics, Hamidia hospital and the wearer of the best tailored suit  
in Bhopal; who at the night of the Union Carbide gas tragedy  
conducted 200 autopsies to reveal the cause of death. Sadly, from the  
gas that was trapped in the lungs of the victims he himself got  
affected.

Also, in the menu is L.M's museum of curiosities, objects of crime  
collected and catalogued over 30 years of his career.


Tito Years:
Is about the times when cross-continental air travel was as rare as  
finding a pair of nike shoes. When NRI relatives visited home with a  
controlled sense of entitlement and smelled different. And when they  
finally left the smell left with them, somewhere at the Palam airport.
