Interesting read. Amazing info and connections between Sunderbans and Italian city of Venice. Bengali Indians, Bangladeshis, Venice, Cicily, Egypt, Banduq, And Refugees, what not, Wow. Not sure, if everything true, but it is certainly somewhat on lines of Dan Brown's Dan Vinci and other books. Author calls it a Novel, so it must be, or??? As if just on cue, today is 31st January 2020, it rained heavily in Blaine, WA.... and when I woke up from sleep, my kitchen in the cottage was flooded...there were tens of black insects moving around on the floor around my bed, flower-bed bugs kind. OMG. I called up my realtor, who sent across a team of 3 huge hispanic workers with tools to get rid of water and look into the incident. Problem was not small. He was good enough to ask me to shift to a next door empty house also belongung to the same landlord till he resolves the curious flooding and assult of worms. Thinking of flooding in Sunderbans, I was looking out of the window, at the sea in front, not exactly like a mangrove but not even unlike.

Mahabharata Illustrated Edited by and Contributor:Debroy Bibek. A good read and collectable.
Excellent collection of illustrations from various countries of the world who at one time followed, Hinduism. Perhaps some unwarranted and editor's imagined ideas of criticism of Kunti and Pandavas could have been avoided, but it is okay as a lot of similar sentiments are already prevalent due to leftist-ideologues. Overall a great book.
