Satyajit Ray will forever be etched in history as one of the greatest movie directors of all time. But this remarkable person had many other talents, including writing.Some of his best works are in the Feluda stories. While many other Indian Detective story tellers have forever been prone to lifting up material from other writings, Ray's works were absolutely genuine.Time and again he came up with nailbiting Feluda mysteries, showing what a clear and marvellous mind this man possessed.
Feluda is a private investigator, based in Kolkatta, who has a passion for solving challenging mysteries, with the help of his cousin & assistant, Topshe and his friend, Lalmohan Ganguly, a thriller story writer. Time and again, Feluda gets wrangled up in thrilling adventures while solving his cases, but always came out solving them with his remarkable brain.
The best part about Ray's Feluda books is that the characters are mostly everyday people, unlike the western crime novels with their upper-class background.But through his stories, Ray depicts the power of the human mind in totality, that where one mind can create a great mystery and another mind can solve them!
