À propos de cet audio
A savage indictment of religious extremism and man's inhumanity to man, Lajja was banned in Bangladesh but became a best seller in the rest of the world. This brand-new translation marks the 20th anniversary of this controversial novel.
The Dattas Sudhamoy and Kironmoyee and their children, Suronjon and Maya, have lived in Bangladesh all their lives. Despite being members of a small Hindu community that is terrorized at every opportunity by Muslim fundamentalists, they refuse to leave their country, unlike most of their friends and relatives. Sudhamoy believes with a naive mix of optimism and idealism that his motherland will not let him down. And then, on December 6, 1992, the Babri Masjid at Ayodhya is demolished by a mob of Hindu fundamentalists. The world condemns the incident, but its immediate fallout is felt most acutely in Bangladesh, where Muslim mobs begin to seek out and attack the Hindus. The nightmare inevitably arrives at the Dattas' doorstep and their world begins to fall apart.
