Alatchakra is one of Taradas Bandyopadhyay’s horror novels, written in the same world of Bengali tantric tradition that shapes his Taranath stories. Taradas was Bibhutibhushan’s son and inherited his father’s deep interest in occult Bengal, but he developed it in his own direction across many years.
If you have read the Taranath stories, this novel sits in the same imaginative country.
