*About the Book :*

Bam Sankar Tan Ganes is the barn house photoplay of Tariani Chapra. A
moving picture like hamlet hitherto living only in the mind and heart of
resident opera house characters like Dhanvir and Anupiya. But, this is not
the familiar, old and ordinary story. Plot and locales could be overused
but there are avant garde characters and writing is cutting edge. Rakesh
Kumar Singh is breaking new ground with fresh and funky emotions and
expressions. His cast of characters is of various shades marvelling
brilliance of a burlesque as well as carnival drama. By all accounts,
Rakesh's literature stands out as a new fashioned entry in the world of
Hindi literature.

The paperback is a portfolio of love, lust, joy, sorrow, valor and victory.
Natives delight in defeat as well as pride in penury. Readers are lured by
the peculiarity of plotlines, which give unique clothing to a far-cry
pageant. Within the collection, the chronology of events throw music and
melody of little village parliament, score and song of Hindu temples to
which a large majority of untouchables are forbidden from sniffing the
romance of spiritual rhapsody. Whiff of history blows tribute to
daredevilry of nine bravehearts who fought for glory and freedom of their
land in 1942 unto death.

The writer deals with habit and humor, mood and mystique, sense and
singularity, spirit and style, temper, tone and trait of sub-altern
characters in a narrative bubbling with psychedelic pleasure. Rakesh Kumar
Singh deserves congratulations for presenting a prime, precious and
pleasing story to the literary world.
