{"product_id":"ltibritte-chandal-jibon-vol-2","title":"Ltibritte Chandal Jibon Vol 2","description":"\u003cp\u003eIIttibrite Chandal Jibon records the life of a rickshaw-wallah writer. It records the Dalit experiences of oppression in Bengal, which is otherwiseknown as a casteless society, as claimed by many a bhadralok. Being a Dalit is central to Manoranjan Byaparis writ- ing. As he says, Im a Dalit by birth. Only a dalit, oppressed by social forces can experience true dalan (oppression) in life. There should be that dalan as a dalit in Dalit writing. Dalit literature should be based on dalit life. Some of my writings deal with dalit life; some to be judged neutrally, without any preconceived estimation. He says he is a chandal in two ways, by birth and by rage (krodha chandal). This second part of Byaparis memoir burns with the rage of a krodh chandal. Byapris investigation into his identity is layered. Besides his cause identity Byapari is a Namashudra- he has also been a refugee, a Bangal, a Naxal, a communist, an activist, a writer and so on. Byaparis autobiography talks of things that have been writ- ten about many times. But the voices from within are few and far between, even these rarely find their way into the so-called main- stream. His narrative is about the need for compassion and dignity in all human relationship. It is powerful, affecting memoir about hunger and deprivation also endurance, struggle and a fierce will to live. It is about the one word that changed Byaparis life forever: Jijibisha. If theres one writer you must read, it is Manoranjan Byapari, with- out a doubt.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eka","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45877308195014,"sku":"DADAX9388754948","price":18.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9389\/1014\/files\/91G3lCdNepL.jpg?v=1779650615","url":"https:\/\/ergodemedia.com\/products\/ltibritte-chandal-jibon-vol-2","provider":"Ergodemedia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
