Synopsis:
- At a time when contemporary Bengali literature seemed to be straying from the grim realities of modern life, Kharij emerged as a striking social commentary.

- Through its sharp narrative, Kharij questions the morality of the so-called civilized world and presents a raw, unfiltered picture of an individual’s helplessness.
- It is an intense and thought-provoking novel that reflects the stark contrast between societal grandeur and the silent suffering of the common man.
