ahitya Akademi award for Bengali author Shankar

Kolkata:

Eminent author Mani Shankar Mukhopadhyay, better known as Shankar, will be conferred the Sahitya Akademi Award 2020 for his memoir titled ‘Eka Eka Ekashi’. 

Author Subodh Sarkar, who is the convener of the Akademi’s advisory board for Bengali, told TOI that this award for the 87-year-old writer had been “long overdue”. On being asked if he too felt that the award was long overdue, Shankar said, “The answer is a yes and a no. At the London Bookfair, I was asked why it had taken so long for the English translation of ‘Chowringhee’ to reach globally...I know, it’s always worth the wait.” TNN
