About the Book
I, an Upam (Ami an Upam) was first published in Bengali in 1976, originally serialized in Sharadiya Ananda Bazar. It was the first novel to address the Naxalite movement in West Bengal, capturing the complex emotions and events surrounding the political upheaval of the time. Released as a book in 1978, the novel delves into the betrayal of the youth and intellectuals who played a dual role in the movement.
This narrative explores the tension between integrity and expediency, focusing on the pivotal role of intellectuals who initially supported and led the youth to fight for their cause but later failed to take responsibility when it mattered the most. I, an Upam offers a sharp, unflinching portrayal of the turbulent period, highlighting the conflicts and moral dilemmas faced by those involved in the Naxalite movement. It’s an insightful reflection on betrayal, responsibility, and the fragile nature of political idealism.
