Sukumar Ray
149 books233 followersSukumar Ray (Bangla: সুকুমার রায়) was a Bengali humorous poet, story writer and playwright. As perhaps the most famous Indian practitioner of literary nonsense, he is often compared to Lewis Carroll.

More than 80 years after his death, Ray remains one of the most popular of children's writers in both West Bengal and Bangladesh.
He was the son of famous Bengali writer Upendrakishore Ray Chowdhury and the father of the renowned film-maker Satyajit Ray.
