You Need a Happy Ending

Posted on 12 June 20203 September 2022 by Annie

Off to the kitchen! I’m making dhal to start off The Adventures of Feluda by Satyajit Ray. This edition contains four novellas featuring the young Bengali detective Feluda: “The Golden Fortress”, “The Buccaneer of Bombay”, “Mystery at Golok Lodge” and “Trouble in the Graveyard”. Feluda is an avid reader himself and a big fan of Sherlock Holmes. Unsurprisingly, he has his own Dr. Watson: the stories are told by his cousin Tapesh. Can’t wait (for dinner / reading)!!
