Translation of Six Women Focused Short Stories of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore
Ismat loves to translate and she translated short stories of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore.   This book contains translations of six selected short stories of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore from his book ‘Galpaguchha’. The stories are, ‘Alive and Dead’ (Jeebita o Mreeta), ‘Suva’, ‘The First Look’ (Shuvadrishti), ‘Hoimantee’, ‘Letter from Your Wife’ (Streer Patra) and ‘The Anonymous Lady’ (Aparichita).
Rabindranath Tagore was a man of many talents, and he introduced Bangla literature to the world.  He won the first Nobel prize of the Indian Sub-continent in 1913 for his poetry book ‘Gitanjali’.  He had also written around hundred short stories and a number of novels, dramas, especially musical dramas, essays, and travelogues.  Short stories are a big part of Rabindranath Tagore’s writings.  He created this new genre in Bengali literature through writing around hundred short stories.  A short description of his vast works is also included in this book.  
In all six stories, the story is centred around a young girl or a matured housewife.  These stories depict the vulnerability of women, their lack of control over their marriage and life as a whole.  Only in two stories we find that the protagonists took decisions regarding their lives. In ‘The Anonymous Lady’, we find that the young lady took a decision regarding her life herself, of course at a later stage.  The first decision was her father’s.  In another story ‘Letter from Your Wife’, also the lady took a decision regarding her life at the end.
These stories show a glimpse of life of another time and of another culture.  The line of thinking may seem much different from today’s life, but in reality in many parts of the world still there are some people who like to suppress the rights of women in the name of religion or culture.  So, these stories are still relevant and they are a good way to understand the society of that time.

Excerpts from Alive and Dead, Kadambinee cannot tolerate any more, she says sharply, ‘Oh, please, I didn’t die, did not die!  How will I make you understand that I didn’t die? Let me show you that I am alive.’

From Hoimantee, ‘My life was so full to the brim on all sides, that I could not notice any gap anywhere.  Suddenly, I witnessed a large void of hopelessness so near me!  I couldn’t understand how and with what I would fill up this void.’

From Letter from Your Wife, Mreenal, ‘I can never understand the logic behind that it’s okay not to please me, but it’s not okay to make you unhappy.’

Human Psychology Focused Five Short Stories of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore

This book is a follow up of the previous book ‘Selected Short Stories of Rabindranath Tagore’ and contains translations of another five selected short stories of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore from his book ‘Galpaguchha’. The stories are, ‘The Postmaster’, ‘The Kabuliwala’, ‘Penance’ (Shasti), ‘Completion’ (Samapti), and ‘Broken Home’ (Nashtaneer).

These five stories of this book are some of the most popular short stories of Rabindranath Tagore, in the sense that all these five stories are transformed into plays, dramas, or movies many times both in Bangladesh and India. Moreover, three of the stories—‘The Postmaster’, ‘Completion’ (Samapti), and ‘Broken Home’ (Nashtaneer)—were transformed into movies by the legendary filmmaker Satyajit Ray himself as ‘Postmaster’, ‘Samapti’ and ‘Charulata’ respectively.

These stories are concerned more about human psychology. The author presented actions and reactions of people in different situations and depicted beautifully how even small acts and gestures affect people, especially when it comes from persons whom they consider close to them.

Excerpts from Kabuliwala, I saw on the paper an impression of a small hand! Not a photograph, not a painting, only an impression on a paper of a small hand made by covering it with kajal (black ink made from oil lamp)! Carrying his daughter’s this token of memory every year Rahmat comes to Kolkata to sell meowa. As if that small, sweet hand gives a tender touch to his large, lonely heart.

From Penance (Shasti), Everyone was surprised to see such a stubborn lady, so inclined to get hanged.  As if no one could hold her back from the verdict of ‘hanged till death’.  What a deep self-respect!  Chandra in her mind said to her husband, ‘I am leaving you and accepting hanging at this prime age.  The hanging rope will be the last bondage of my earthly life.’

From Completion (Samapti), The arrangement was really ideal. The riverbank, shadows of trees, melodious songs of the birds, morning sunshine, a young man of twenty years; the stacked bricks may not be something worthy to mention, but the person sitting on it gave a touch of beauty to it also. Alas! In the midst of this beautiful setting, what could be a more cruel twist of fate than the end of all romanticism with the fall on the mud with the first step!

From Broken Home (Nashtaneer), The heart of that weak woman was pressured from all sides of the society. She did not have any person to whom she could express her feelings, these were not like something you could share with anyone, there was no place where she could cry her hearts out. Instead, she had to carry and shut all these unbearable, constant sorrow in her heart and behave like a normal happy person and go on with all the normal activities every day like any other normal neighbours of her.
