This is a contemporary story of adventure, love, nostalgia and tragedy that is set in the tea estates of Dooars—floodplains that lie south of the northeastern Himalayas. TRISHA, a young American field biologist, arrives in Dooars to research human-animal conflict, particularly between elephants and the growing human population that is left unemployed due to the dwindling tea industry. Brojen and Trisha connect instantly, as they share an enthusiastic admiration and love for the natural world. The extent of personal toll that human-animal conflict exacts is evident in the fact that Brojen had lost his mother in a leopard attack when he was only ten years old. The family comes together when Bhanu, beloved patriarch and an influential and highly regarded businessman in the community, suddenly descends into a coma. Drama unfolds as the facade of Bhanu’s good deeds shatters and ugly truths about his life reveal themselves, including his appetite for a certain aphrodisiacal mad honey that had taken Brojen on a journey across the Nepal Himalayas in the past. Alongside this, romance buds between the optimistic and gentle Joy and the hesitant and guarded Trisha as he gets involved in her research, which itself is dappled with incidents of elephant electrocution, forest fires and poaching. Occasional peeks into the past lives of these characters brings to surface the undercurrents of disjunct family relations dictated by desire, prestige, contempt and, above all, love.

Deriving inspiration from Swami Vivekananda’s exhortation that the highest philosophy must be put in concrete moral forms so that anyone can grasp, Swami Vimurtananda, under the pseudonym of Bhamathimaindan, had written several stories that were published in Sri Ramakrishna Vijayam, the Tamil monthly published from Sri Ramakrishna Math, Chennai. This book is a collection of English translation of twenty-five such stories. It offers eternal messages packaged in imaginative stories of real-life significance under the title Speaking Flute that conjures up visions of Sri Krishna from whose mystic flute divine music issues forth in recurring waves. The slender volume is a good example of impeccable story-telling. It is ideal for non-detailed study by school students.
