Prohor
In the Course of Time
Subhadro Chowdhury
Prohor is a thin narrative revolving round a relationship between a patient and a nurse. The latter, Nandita, one day treats a patient injured by a bomb and in a state of coma. He is the same man who raped her six years ago and changed the course of her life. Nandita plans a perfect revenge but she fails to carry it out: the criminal dies for medical problems, although he repents his own act of crime.
