Members of the BRAC Bank Reading Café, in collaboration with Aajob Prokash, engaged in a discussion on a collection of poems that delve into the heart of Bangladesh’s liberation war. The volume, titled ‘Nirbachito Muktijuddher Kobita’ and edited by Syed Mazharul Parvez, became the centrepiece of a discussion that not only celebrated the poems’ artistic merit but also critically analyzed their content and the choices made in their curation. Many voiced their thoughts on the selection process by the editor, suggesting that the anthology might have benefited from the inclusion of other significant poems that were left out from the book. The BRAC Bank Reading Café has announced that for April, the focus will shift to the short stories of the eminent Urdu writer Sadat Hasan Manto, promising another series of engaging and enlightening sessions.
