Chandrabati Devi as Chandramukhi and PC Barua playing the titular role in Devdas (1935).
...Barua had taken over, deepened and enriched the Devdas myth; he had lived and died as only Saratchandra and his readers could have imagined. 'Perhaps the whole purpose of your advent in the world of cinema', the novelist himself had said, was 'to give life to my brainchild Devdas.'

I definitely buy more books than I should…
I got this after hearing some amazing reviews from some peers at a book club. It got me really intrigued, so here it is.
When I’m reading it? Oh, I have no idea.

“it’s funny. no matter where you go, or how many books you read, you still know nothing, you haven’t seen anything. and that’s life. we live our lives trying to find our way. it’s like that santōka taneda poem, the one that goes, ‘on and on, in and in, and still the blue-green mountains’.”
- satoshi yagisawa, days at the morisaki bookstore
