Another comment on a long-lost thread involving a discussion that Apratim
and I had about the relative physical labor and worth involved in the
work done by ragpickers in Calcutta and white-collar computer programmers.

I just finished reading a memorable book by Carolina Maria de Jesus which
I encourage everyone who followed that discussion, to read. I have rarely
read a book that has moved me so deeply. The book has apparently been
translated twice into English, once under the title of "Beyond All Pity"
and once under the title of "Child of the Dark" and possibly also under
other titles. So please, please look up Carolina Maria de Jesus in your
library catalog and read any translation of this book that you can lay
your hands on. It is a moving human document and I was reminded of Calcutta
on every page as I read through it.

I must warn however that it is an emotionally draining book to read (at
least I found it so) and so may be hard to read for the soft-hearted.

-Sayan.

Note of correction: AFAIR, the discussion was not about the relative
physical labor (irrelevant, IMO) or worth (subjective, IMO) involved,
but about the justification (or the lack thereof) of the staggerring
imbalance between the average compensations for the two professions.

Since Apratim-Baboo's original article is yet to appear on my news-server,
I choose to clarify a couple of points through this posting of Chaitali
that have appeared on my server. Firstly I never wrote that Benoy-Babu
travels from Burdwan to Writers daily and back. Please go back and check the
original article. All I said that he travels on second class passenger
trains from Burdwan to Calcutta to and fro. If I remember correctly when
he is in Calcutta he either stays at MLA hostel or at CPI(M) HQ at
Nizamuddin St. So the question of his wasting quality work time in travelling
on trains does not arise. Infact he is one of the very few ministers in LF
who worked hard and did contribute something worthwhile for WB. In a quite
a famous incident in one of those Land Reforms ministry meeting with Zilla
Parishad representatives he lambasted the Zilla Sabha-dipathi and some of
party members for using official cars to come to Calcutta from Burdwan. Anyway
he is one of the very few who is admired across party-lines for his work.
And I have great respects for people like him as have personally seen the
simple principled lives they led and although I personally disagree
to the political philosophy he adhered to. It is regrettable that people
like him lost to the latter-day goondas and corrupt despots.

Anyway my intention of the original article was to clarify some points
to Dr. Bhattacharya who was unable to get a civilized response to his
query and was hurled invectives by Mr. Rajwinder Singh from Boston University.
I added SCB to my posting as I thought I wrote something relevant to Bengal.
My apologies if the readers of SCB are affronted by the above posting.
Anyway my current preoccupations with folding up my dissertation, imminent
job hunt and trying to mollify my friends who feels strongly about being
neglected would henceforth deter me from following up any article.
Hence my advanced apologies if any of my postings had offended anybody.

regards,
Anindya.

The reason some people feel driven to make "caustic" and cynical comments
at every opportunity, casting doubt on the sincerity and integrity of others,
is very simple. These people have sold their soul to corporatism and have
swallowed the materialistic bait thrown at them, hook, corporatist line
and sinker. They feel it necessary therefore to continually prove that
lifestyles other than theirs, especially lifestyles that do not buy into the
corporatist, materialist agenda, are somehow fraudulent. This helps them to
justify to themselves their own sell-out.

Actually, my impression of Binoy Choudhury, too, was pretty close.
He was one of the Kaaj'r loks, etai jantam. "Simple principled
life"'r irrelevance to professional expertise niye alochana baRate
