Short Review of Himu Novel:

source

What is the name of your Himu? ji Himu, Him to Himu, JI Na Himalaya to Himu. My good name is Himalayas. By now you may have understood but I was talking about Himu. There is no reader among the bookworms who does not know Himu. One of the best characters in Bengali literature, Humayun Ahmed, is Himu. Himu is a mystery man. Which the reader can never wait for.

Writer Humayun Ahmed brought Himu among us through Mayurakshi. The opposite of Sherpur and Miss Ali does not lend itself to any argument. He stays as he pleases and walks around as he pleases. Where there is no need for a partner, we Humayun devotees want to be a partner in his path. Because we like it, we consider ourselves very lucky with a little indulgence. Early in the novel he is seen talking to a girl named Esa. In Emur's words, he is a little hesitant to help them because he helped them.

What is the benefit of the reader will see on the pages of the book he was asked what his job. Emu answered very fluently. He is a traveler. Hearing his work answer, Esar frowned. Sitting in the living room, he thought something out and found out that there were no tea leaves in the house and asked him a question. Himu sat in the room and the pictures were in his eyes. He wanted to come and read, but he sat down and left the TV. But even though nothing was coming on TV, Himu continued to watch TV with great interest.

However, for many, Himu is a powerful person, a great man or a saint-monk type who can make predictions, but for some, it is the nonsense type of Baundul. Himu's favorite job is to confuse the people around him. Many of the characters in this novel love him so much that even devotion is blind. Iyad is one of them. Again an annoying thing to someone. One such person is Nitu. Himu's character is sometimes forgotten and sometimes completely out of control.

If you believe him, you have to cheat, but you can't disbelieve again. Her words are neither true nor false. One of her inhuman sisters is waiting for the love of man. What is not common among the common people? On the one hand, his father's dream was to make him a great man and in that respect his father's wishes did not fail but did not succeed again. To all readers, Himu is a mysterious character who cannot be distinguished, he will move at his own pace.
