KANIKA BARMAN
Kanika Barman is the writer of the UNHEARD voices of women and Critic Utpal Datta released Kanika Barman’s NISHIGANDHA. Kanika Barman came to the limelight as one of the most vital novelists with her first novel, NISHIGANDHA (means the smell of night).
This novel tells some unheard stories of some women from different parts of the society that the writers find difficult to travel. In an extended interview, Kanika Barman narrated the background of her novel.
‘I worked as a counsellor for a few years under NACO. As a part of my work, I had to counsel many Govt registered sex workers. A survey report came where we found that transmission of HIV+ among a few sections of people appeared alarming. The woman sex worker was a major category in that list. During the counselling period, I learned about their wounded hearts, pain and dreams, sufferings, hopes, aspirations and the unbearable attitude they received from society. Later, I realized hunger was the root cause of their endless sufferings. After listening to their life stories and realizing their personal and social crises, I planned to write about them. I feel no woman is born a sex worker; some elements of our society transform them into sex workers but cannot ruin them. The life with shattered dreams and broken life.’
Though this novel NISHIGANDHA is Kanika’s debut novel, readers labelled her as an important novelist. Her powerful voice, observant eyes to the unseen world of the society, humanistic approach and crisp and free-flowing narrative style took her a critical writer. She started writing in her college days. She proved herself as an influential writer of biography, poems and short stories. Her short story, Sir Moi Bhukhan, aired on All India Radio and was an instant hit. She did her post-graduation in Assamese literature and worked in a Govt department for a few years. Later, she left the job and concentrated on writing. Apart from writing, she engaged herself in a woman writer’s forum and tried to create an academic environment in a town named Tihu, where she lives. She is also one of the recipient of Literary Honour from Govt of Assam.
Her novel NISHIGANDHA was released by the known critic Utpal Datta whose latest book ‘Film Appreciation’ is a hit in the pan-Indian literary and film perspective. The novel Nishigandha features a portrait of Arti Sing, a political TV journalist in Jharkhand, who lives at Ranchi. Dr Sanjib Bora designed the cover. This book is available on Flipkart. Now, Kanika is completing her first short story collection, set to release at the forthcoming Assam Book Fair.
