Description
Translated from the Bengali by Bijoya Ray, this Memoir is replete with delightful anecdotes from the life of one of the world's greatest film-makers.
Who was Satyajit Ray, writer, director, music composer and artist? Where did he make his beginnings? Who were the people he grew up with? In this charming collection of stories from Ray's childhood and film-making days, we get a glimpse into the life of a man who appeared serious and aloof to the world, and find a different, more accessible Ray - humorous, tender, affectionate.
Frank and funny, these stories are an essential read for all Ray enthusiasts as well as those who want to know Ray, the writer and film-maker, better.
