Arupa Patangia Kalita

3.9/5 ( ratings)

A half-burnt bus passes through a city charring everything alive and beautiful in its wake. The newly wed Arunima watches helplessly as the aftermath of her insurgent brother-in-law's absence engulfs her husband's large, loving family. Ayengla secretly supplies food to the insurgents until, one day, a horrible act of violence changes her life irrevocably.

A bold and acutely aware witness to her times, Arupa Patangia Kalita is one of the most powerful voices in contemporary Assamese literature.
