About the Book:
Pather Panchali (Song of the Road) is a poignant novel written by Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay, later adapted into the iconic film directed by Satyajit Ray. The story captures the heart-wrenching life of the Roy family, chronicling their struggles and the profound hardships they face as they move from their ancestral village in rural Bengal to the bustling city of Varanasi in search of a better life.
First published as a serialized novel in a Calcutta periodical in 1928, Pather Panchali was released as a book the following year, marking Bandyopadhyay's debut as a novelist. The novel delves deep into the family’s emotional journey—dealing with grief, loss, and the changing landscape of their lives. Its themes of family, poverty, and resilience resonate universally, making it an unforgettable literary masterpiece.
The book was followed by the sequel Aparajito, which continues the saga of the Roy family and was also later adapted into a film by Satyajit Ray.
