You try to read Sartre, you do not understand anything, OK, understandable. You read Jiddu's books and you are completely lost, instead of being enlightened. That is also OK. Gunter Grass books drive you completely confused and then blank. OK, that too is acceptable.
But if you are confused after reading a thriller, some thing is seriously going wrong with you, lady. Buckle up. Said me to myself, after reading Calcutta Chromosome. But no, I have not understood the book and I do not want to read it again. You all know how busy life I lead.
Who is this Mangala Bibi? Is she an illiterate village cleaning woman cleaning the home of the researcher Cunningham in the 19th century? Or is she the researcher who finds out avian version of Malaria virus plasmodium and finds out how this can cure syphilis? Is she responsible for the invention of mode of malaria transmission by mosquitoes by Ronald Ross?
And who is Antar, the Egyptian living in 22nd century? Why does he want to know about Murugan? And who is Murugan? How does he turn insane? Or is he really insane?
What has the Calcutta journo Urmila got to do with all this? Who wants her to find Murugan, then Romen and all the story behind Calcutta chromosome? Will she be the next body, Mangala bibi will inhabit? What happens Phulbouni- the author and his daughter Sonali?
Read the book to - not know all these and more!!
