I Am Sheikh Mujib; An Epic Monologue

by Anisur Rahman, Anisur Rahman (Translator), Zaheer Ahmed (Translator)

Overview

In his epic monologue, Bengali-Swedish writer Anisur Rahman (b. 1978) brings to life the voice and mind of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman during all hardships and struggle for an independent nation for the Bengali speaking people of the Indian Subcontinent. The political history of Bangladesh has manifested itself as the people's proclamation of language as a cultural heritage, and as an epitome of resistance to colonial powers mapping out the postcolonial nations.
