Summary

In 'The Inimitable Jeeves,' P. G. Wodehouse brilliantly weaves a tapestry of humor and wit, showcasing the misadventures of the bumbling Bertie Wooster and his ingenious valet, Jeeves.

The narrative unfolds within a rich comedic context, featuring absurd situations that culminate in delightful resolutions, allowing Wodehouse to skillfully blend social commentary with light-hearted entertainment. Wodehouse, an iconic figure in English literature, draws from his experiences in the upper-middle-class milieu of England and the United States.

Writing from the early 1900s, Wodehouse's distinctively humorous lens encapsulates the essence of his time, revealing the nuances of societal norms while crafting memorable characters that continue to resonate with readers. Readers seeking a delightful escape into a world of charm and errant hilarity will find 'The Inimitable Jeeves' an irresistible addition to their literary repertoire.

    Einstein o Indubala:...

    A critically acclaimed stinging narrative by the legendary Bibhutibhusan Bandopadhyay, the title of 'Einstein o Indubala' reflects the pathological low intellectual taste of the masses that could not distinguish between class and gloss. The story is a dark sarcasm that mocks the trite, banal, and trivial - a symptomatic occupation that lacks intellectual curiosity, imagination, and common sense in identifying and appreciating real quality in the face of mindless temptations and a false sense of glamour. 
The deliberate parody portrays the quintessential opposite poles of the human intellect to bear on the author's focus on this paradoxical human behavior in the garb of a comical display of human apathy and indifference to appreciate something great. 
Reflect on this masterclass from one of the classical masters of Bengal literature that rings true even in today's context and society.
