About the author

Manoj Das, a prolific author, is among India's foremost short story writers. He writes both in Oriya (Odia) and English, and is a Professor of English at the Sri Aurobindo International University, Pondicherry.

Manoj Das was born in a small coastal village named Shankari in Balasore district, Orissa State. Since 1963, he has been an ashramite at Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry. He is presently concentrating on writing novels.

Manoj Das is perhaps the foremost bilingual Oriya writer and a master of dramatic expression both in his English and Oriya short stories and novels. He says that:

"Characters follow the theme of a story, and the words are merely added by author to represent the thoughts of the character."

That is the precise reason why Das's characters in fiction are from so many varied backgrounds, and display many different dimensions of human nature. He is a philosopher, a thinker-writer whose works can be defined as a quest for finding the eternal truth in everyday situations.

ପକା କମ୍ବଳ , ପୋତ ଛତା,
ଶୁଣୁ ଅବୋଲକରା, କହୁଛି କଥା।

ଅବୋଲକରା ତା'ର ସାଆନ୍ତଙ୍କ ଠାରୁ କେତେ କଥା ଶୁଣି ଆସୁଛି, ଯୁଗ ଯୁଗରୁ।
ମନୋଜ ଦାସ ସେଥିରୁ କିଛିଟା ସାଉଁଟି ଆଣି ନିଜ ଶୈଳୀରେ ପ୍ରକାଶ କରିଛନ୍ତି। ସମ୍ଭବତଃ ତନ୍ମଧ୍ୟରୁ କିଛିଟା ନିଜସ୍ୱ।
ସେ ଯାହା ହେଉ, ଏହି ଗଳ୍ପଗୁଡିକରେ ମନୋଜ ଦାସଙ୍କର ସେ ଯାଦୁ ନଥିଲା, ଯାହା ଯୋଗୁ ସେ ମୋର ସବୁଠାରୁ ପ୍ରିୟ ଲେଖକମାନଙ୍କ ଭିତରୁ ଜଣେ।
