Short Story
Have Finished Sewing The Quilt, Don't Worry
Once political workers and those who struggled for freedom began to be captured after the first language movement of 1948, things continued pretty much the same way till 1971.
 
Book Review
The Continuing, Vivid Cost of Freedom
The Mind of War-Injured Freedom Fighters of Bangladesh by Dr. M. A. Mohit Kamal, Dhaka: BidyaProkash, 2001.

First the bad news.

 
BANGLADESH '71
Venturing at last to go out
I blink at the guilt in the eye
And fumble with the throat
As if there were a tie.

Smoky dusk falls like a fear
Over stone and human heart.
