Short Book Review: The Last Question and The Last Answer by Issac Asimov

The Last Question by Issac AsimovSBR: The Last Question and The Last Answer by Issac Asimov are two short stories, not full-length books. I am not a science fiction reader and these were recommended to me by a friend and her science fiction loving Mom. I have to admit that I am not the right person to review the genre and to top that Asimov is Asimov! But even as a non-reader of the genre, I enjoyed the stories.
To read or not to read: Yes. You have, perhaps, already read them if you are a science fiction reader. If not, why not take a peep into the world through these stories?

Short Book Review: The Greatest Bengali Stories Even Told by Arunava Sinha

The Greatest Bengali Stories Even Told by Arunava SinhaSBR: Arunava Sinha is a terrific and prolific translator of Bengali literature. So if there is a translation of Bengali stories done by him, I guess you have to pick it up. The stories are from various Bengali authors, many of them famous and well-known, spanning multitudes of genres. So there isn’t much to review. It’s a good book to have.

To read or not to read: If you are not set against reading short stories, there is no reason why you shouldn’t.
