One well educated girl from a Bengali Brahmin family married a foreigner Muslim youth against the wishes of her family. She went to visit her in-laws staying in a small village in Afghanistan with high hopes and faith. Once she reached the village she realised the fact that there were roads to enter this country but not to move out of the country. All the people were not bad but some were mean, some were selfish. She was imprisoned there because of such people. She suffered a lot during the 8 years of her imprisonment; she experienced many a good and bad things. This story presents the hair-raising experiences when she tried to run away to India, away from her stagnant life there, away from the Talibani fanatics after facing their opposition courageously. We shiver to our bones while reading her story. रवीन्द्रनाथ टागोर हे कथाकार म्हणून आपल्याला फारसे परिचित नाहीत परंतु त्यांनी लिहिलेल्या कथा ह्या बंगालीच नव्हे तर भारतीय साहित्यातील अनमोल ठेवा आहे. भारतीय मातीतून जन्माला आलेली कालबाह्य न वाटता ताजी वाटते. वाईटावर चांगुलपणाने मात केल्यास सर्वांचेच मंगल होते हा सकारात्मक दृष्टीकोन मांडणारी त्यांची कथा सौदर्य व प्रसन्नता ह्यांचा अनुभव देते.
