The Green Series by Victor Ghoshe

To add some colours to my life along with my 9 to 6 job I decided to paint through my Sundays . And somehow this unique idea stroke my mind hard that if I need to create something really interesting I might need to start from the dust-bin to create my new series. I was lucky. Some weeks later, one late evening sitting in my office I found what I was destined to find.... One of our office attendants, threw a bunch of used, crumpled envelops in the dustbin after clearing a certain table..... I lazily looked at the disgust on his face and had compassion on the stuff he threw..... in a moment I could see a vision in my mind.... For all of us – envelops are so important till the moment they deliver a document... but the next moment they have no value for us.... they suddenly become useless – they become garbage. My mind raced.... Is it possible to give them a new life... ? Is it possible to give them a life of honour....? Is it possible to help them help us...once again.........? Many Sundays and several months of relentless struggle-with-time later... I could create a repository.... A responsible, thoughtful and an honest repository for the human passion for being creative. May I present... The Green Series …

Victor Ghoshe's 1st book - Ethernet & Other stories - a collection of paranormal stories launched in Bangla Sahitya Academy, Kolkata Sept. 2010:


Ethernet ebong onnanno golpo :
Book Review
Victor Kalyan Ghoshe is a young Indian writer, who is very new in the Indian literary field, but who surely will be known very soon for his fresh & humanistic approach to literature. ‘Ethernet ebong onnanno golpo’ is a short story collection in Bengali, a language spoken in the eastern state of India - West Bengal. And yet, his works are surely of universal interest. They are about things that make human life move on – sur-reality, human bonding, emotions, struggle, conflicts, joys and sorrows.

Victor leaves a cinematic imagery in the mind of the reader through every sentence he composes. His stories demonstrate a remarkable humanism, elaborate observation and subtle handling of characters and situations. Victor Kalyan Ghoshe’s work is a rare blend of life, sur-reality, human bonding and emotions. His style is controlled, precise, meticulous, and yet, evokes deep emotional response from readers. His stories depict a fine sensitivity without using melodrama or dramatic excesses. He evolved a simplistic style that is almost invisible. He strongly believes that - "The best technique of storytelling is the one that's not noticeable".

Wish-Fly is the 'wings of wishes' we all have, its an inbuilt mechanism, but we keep them
folded, in a secret chest. Wish-Fly is our desire to fly, Wish-Fly is you, Wish-Fly is me and Wish-Fly is music...
