Abstract

Although the novels written in the 60's military regime-suppressed subjugated Bangladesh are abundant in numerology, in most of the novels the identity of the novelists' practical experience and experience and the chemical synthesis of life sense is negligible. However, the sensibilities of time-honoured, real-life-experienced deep life-views and the depth of positive life consciousness and social observation have turned the novels into unique and distinctive works of art, Among them, whose name is prominent in his novels is filmmaker, journalist and novelist Zahir Raihan [1933-1972]. In the complex and bloody time course of Bangladesh in the 60s, in the projection of the multi-faceted complexity and social reality of the civil middle class, in the analysis of thinking and psychology, in the revelation of the innermost mysteries of the human mind, in the transformation of the current human life and society's temporal experience and in the application of aesthetic art, this strong and hardworking novelist's 'Shesh Bikeler Maye' (1960), 'Trishna' ' (1962), 'Hajar Bochor Dhore' (1964), 'Arek Falgun' (1969) and 'Borof Gola Nodi' (1969)- In these five novels are undoubtedly distinctive. Zahir Raihan's novels such as lively and dynamic, in the selection of subjects and the skillful arrangement of historical, contemporary and futuristic art visions; Also profound in consonants. Zahir Raihan finds positive art-forms in the dismal social consciousness and conflicting political cycle of the 1960s. Of course, even though his work is often tinged with romanticism due to the sometimes unsophisticated nature of social consciousness, he uses this romantic trait as the central source of a bright hope. In order to reveal the complicated and bloody nature of human life, the novelist has adopted cinematic methods in his novels; As a result, the point of view of individual mind, introspection, soliloquy and psychoanalysis have become important in characterisation. Zahir Raihan is socialist in spirit, democrat in art, romantic in life, emotional and painterly in vision. And for this inevitable reason his novels are emotional, scriptural, colorful and poetic.
