Book Description
1942, India The Quit India movement was at its peak, and people from various parts of the country came together to fight for freedom. Several great leaders inspired thousands to join the movement, and Pushpalata Das was at the forefront of the struggle in Assam. Her call to rise against suppression led to numerous common men and women to stand up and turn their dream of an independent India into reality. Kanaklata Barua led one of the biggest peaceful processions towards the Gohpur Police Station in Assam, to hoist the Indian tricolor to mark the symbolic end of the British Raj in India. She was instrumental in mobilizing a large number of people into joining the freedom struggle. The seventeen-year-old tigress of Assam was shot dead from point blank range on 20th September 1942 by British Police. The Fearless Revolutionary is the hitherto unheard story of this braveheart who conquered fear at a very young age. Giving wings to her desire to see India as a free country, she made the supreme sacrifice at the altar of freedom.

Book Description
The novel is based on establishment of a new town in Lower Assam, Abhayapuri during 1898-1902 by a Queen of Bijni Princely State. However, the novel does not claim any authenticity of facts and materials from history. All the characters are fictitious except the names of kings and queens. The protagonist, Banamali Das of the novel was a common youth of Bijni princely state who lived during the regime of Queen Abhayeshwari, the founder of the present Abhayapuri township. He worked initially as a labourer in the construction works of the roads within the township and rose to the post of personal adviser of the Benevolent Queen. The character of Banamali and his family are non-existent and if however, anyone finds any similarity of any living or dead person(s) with the character of Banamali, it is a mere coincidence only.

Book Description
It is the very nature of representation to be theatrical and self-referential. This book undercuts the fact that all representational knowledge is autonomous and sovereign. At times, theatrical representations can misguide and mislead. Representation can also ineluctably project ones own preferences and preoccupations. Thus, representation and subjective interpretation divulge into myriad domains. This book is concerned with the effects and consequences of representation and its politics. This book examines not only how language as well as representation produce meaning, but also how discursive knowledge connected to power regulates, conducts, and constructs identities and defines the way certain things are thought about practices and are studied. The book takes note of the fact that within the framework of performance, a performative subject does not wear a coherent identity as it is fragmented, decentered, simulated and is unstable, while being both virtual as well as actual. In the field of semiotics, theatre is historically and reciprocally affected by practice, especially within contingent conditions of time. In theatre semiotics, the new image of knowledge is that of turbulence. Here, knowledge is not so much a system as it is a confluence. Carrying this stance further we can say that contemporary Assamese theatre is characterised by shifting counter-voices and sub-textual underpinnings. This act forces reading into two directions: dialogic openness and variability of meaning that question the theatre directors as the only ones who know.

It is an inspirational autobiography of a village boy who struggled his way to establish himself in the modern hostile world and was able to settle in a large city in India. He was a victim of humiliation at every level of his life; but instead of plunging into depression, he laughed it away as if each and every humiliation was only another inspirational milestone in his life.
