14: Stories That Inspired Satyajit Ray by Bhaskar Chattopadhyay
3.0
14 short stories that inspired Satyajit Ray :) .

“The only solution that are ever worth anything are the solutions that people find themselves.” - Satyajit Ray. .

I don’t usually prefer reading short stories but when the guy in the bookworm store suggested this, I picked it up. Satyajit Ray as we all know was a famous Indian director and this drew further curiosity from me to read the same. While two of the stories were written by Ray himself, the rest are penned down by various authors including his father. The stories are fairly simple that describes both middle class families as well as the rich. This book can be a perfect beginner’s read but I’m afraid not everybody would find the book amusing. Fun fact, all the 14 stories are made into Bengali movies. I would rate it 3.8/5. There are no elements of surprise or quirk but it’ll be a good read with a cup of evening tea. .
