literature Festival : Another chance to be intellectual

Being from Hindi medium school (specially in collaboration with RSS ) I have been largely affected by hinduism but now as English media is trying from last some decades is blindly criticism for any of that task or spirit which is supported by RSS and I am also changing my taste day by day. The seventh was the first class when I started to have feeling for literature and I was just confined to biography of ancient Indian legends like Vivekanand, Mahaveer Swami and a few others.After two years I started with some non-biographical book and Premchand was the favourite one ("GODAN" and "GABAN" are those books") who shown me direction to think for human which was basically very much similar to communism.
There was an opportunity for me to read one famous novel "लज्जा" and I was quite immature for that in those days.Taslima Nasreen, Writer of that book who wrote against the cruelty of Bangladeshi Muslims and suffering exile from more then fifteen years from her home, has shown courage in that book to say the truth and being in favour of the weaker people at any cost. I am just so impressed by her contribution to literature and just want to add that she has empowered literature by extending its sub-branches from love-description, nature-description, beauty-descripiton and courage-spirit writing to justice-writing. I strongly believe that one should study that book so that he can also have one ideal in his mind to oppose the injustice despite all opposite situations.
A book "गुनाहों का देवता" is one more book I appreciate and recommend to each of my friends. Just for the sake of waking interest in that book I am just giving small description of that book. The book is all about sacred love and how a person doesn't know that he really loves someone because the love was not with her body but with heart. But you can't expect happy endings in real life and how the story goes on is too heart-grieving that makes difficult to control tears of readers. One might have seen many movies on love and probably direcors and script-writers tried to touch each and every angle of love but still they are away from this story which not mere a story but a feeling and this can be felt just by reading this book.
Another book Anand Math written by Bankimchandra chatterji was a mixture of story and verses and our national song has been picked up from this book. It was a good book giving the feeling of one century ago and just reminding how change people used to be at that time and how much courage they shown just to intact their glory. A few more good writes like Sharatchandra chatterji who wrote "चरित्रहीन" and "पथ के दावेदार " just shown the literary skill and intellectuality of Bangla-writes.
From last few years I haven't studied many hindi novel and definitely not many english novels too but really will be starting as these novels are tools to sharpen your imagination powers memory skill as well as thinking ability ( विचार क्षमता ). First of all I will be going for Russian writers who wrote in all diversified fields but mostly on philosophy which always fascinates me.
