Shonku Samagra collects Satyajit Ray’s adventures of Professor Shonku, the eccentric Bengali scientist whose inventions and travels make up one of Bengali literature’s most loved science fiction series. Shonku is gentler and more experimental than Feluda, with a robot named Bidhushekhar and a cat named Newton for company.
For Bengali readers who want science fiction with an Indian sensibility, Shonku is the central body of work. The samagra is the easiest way to read him.
