Amardeep Singh on Debjani Sengupta and early Bengali science fiction

From Amardeep Singh’s blog, a post on early Bengali science fiction.

It seems a little hard to imagine people writing about electric doorbells and burglar alarms in the 1880s in Calcutta, but there you have it. (Doorbells were actually invented in 1830, so maybe it’s not that shocking.)
