Early life

Anil Ghorai was born on 1 November 1957 in Rukminipur village of Egra subdivision of Purba Medinipur in a Mahishya family to Abhimanyu Ghorai and Tilottoma Debi. He migrated to Nagarukhra in Nadia in 1962 at only 5 years of age for better education. He graduated from Bipradas Pal Chowdhury Institute of Technology in 1980. He was admitted to Jadavpur University to study Industrial engineering.[3]

Nature of his works

He was a valuable contributor to the massive change that began in Bengali novels and stories in the 1970s. He left a deep impression in his writings one after another. His writings focused on the lower rungs of society.[4]

Anil's first novel, 'Nunbari' (1989), was a story of the recovery of a neglected girl from the Noonmara community, which is intertwined with the life of Malangi society. ‘Durbogarar Upakhyan’ (1997) is a story about the tribal people of Bihar. During the winter season, the local tribal people go to the Durbogara river to search for gold which is their livelihood.[4]

‘Nil dukhyer chobi’ (2001) is the first Bengali novel written about the life of the Kakmara community. They make a living by selling their produce. They raise pigs. Their main livelihood is begging.[4]

Anil Gharai's most notable work, and a memorable achievement in Bengali novels, is 'Ananta Draghima' (2009). In this large-scale novel, the picture of a marginalized public life has come to life in a wide-ranging narrative.[4]
