    Taslima Nasrin
    One of my favorite poetess.

    specially I like her STRAIGHTFORWARD writings
    Her crystal clean poetry is WORLD APPEALING really.

    I think for her BRAVE-HEART POINTING OUT writings on WOMANHOOD RIGHTS have showed the true path of Bengali women and only SHE is to be PRAISED for the present PRAISEWORTHY PLACE of BANGLADESHI Women.

At The Back Of Progress

The fellow who sits in the air-conditioned office
