Sinopse

It once occurred to a certain king, that if he always knew the right time to begin everything; if he knew who were the right people to listen to, and whom to avoid; and, above all, if he always knew what was the most important thing to do, he would never fail in anything he might undertake.

    The novel ‘Shesh Potro’ is a true-life portrayal of teenage love. Although apparently love is the source of many joys and sorrows, it is reflected here that it is a driving force in adolescent growth and interpersonal relationships. Adolescent love in a rural socio-cultural environment is quite emotional. It may live on in the shadow of memory, though largely unspoken and incomplete. Then in adulthood, when opportunities for unquestionable expression and mutual recognition open, love triumphs.
