The Adventures Of Feluda

Description :

Four novellas of crime and suspense featuring Feluda, the brilliant Bengali private investigator. In his foreword to his book, Satyajit Ray, the noted film-maker, confesses that he has ýbeen an avid reader of crime fiction for a very long time.ý This deep interest led Ray to trying his own hand at the genre. The response of the first Feluda story startled him ýas he writes, ýI scarcely imagined he would prove so popular that I would be forced to write a Feluda novel every year.ý The novellas in this collection are the authorýs own favourites from among the numerous Feluda stories he has written. Feluda, urbane, intellectually-inclined, trademark Charminar in mouth, sets out to solve a series of particularly baffling crimes ranging from a kidnapping in Rajasthan to a locked-room murder in an old Calcutta house.
