চুঁচুড়ার গৌরীশঙ্কর মন্দিরের ছবি অঙ্কুর মজুমদার: গৌরী সেনের দান ও দাক্ষিণ্যের জন্য ‘লাগে টাকা দেবে গৌরী সেন’ প্রবাদটি প্রচলিত হয়েছে। সামান্য পুঁজি মূলধন নিয়ে গৌরী সেন নিজ বুদ্ধি ও সততার বলে বিশেষ উন্নতি করেন। অবশ্য বিরাট ধনী হওয়ার পিছনে যে কাহিনী, তা প্রায় অলৌকিক পর্যায়ের।

I heard about this author long time back.And i took this book of her to read. However, towards the end of the book, the narrative took a supernatural turn that didn't seem to fit with the rest of the story. The sudden shift left me feeling disconnected from the book and its characters. Although the ending wasn't entirely unrealistic, it just didn't seem to fit with the overall tone and theme of the book. Despite my disappointment with the ending, I do acknowledge the book's positive attributes, such as the engaging storyline. I also appreciated the author's beautiful writing style that kept me engaged throughout most of the book.
