    Awarded the ‘Sahitya Akademi’ in 2005, Hashpatale Lekha Kabitaguchchho was written by Binoy Majumdar during his confinement in a psychiatric hospital. An engineering graduate with a deep love for mathematics, Majumdar’s poems are both hauntingly precise and profoundly human. Arunava Sinha’s translation unveils a mind teetering on the edge of brilliance and torment.


    About the Author:
    Binoy Majumdar (1934–2006) created work that continues to intrigue and inspire. A mechanical engineering graduate with a lifelong passion for mathematics, Majumdar’s love for systematic observation beautifully permeates his poetry, rendering his work both hauntingly precise and achingly human. These poems, from his Hashpatale Lekha Kabitaguchchho for which he won the Sahitya Akademi Award (2005), were penned during his stay in a psychiatric hospital. These offer readers a rare glimpse into a mind teetering on the edge of brilliance and torment.
