(Humayun Ahmed's comments )
"Humayun Ahmed is a gifted/ talented writer"
Sure he is according to Bangladeshi readers. His appeal is local/
domestic, his appeal cannot cross beyond that narrow BD border because
his mentality is bounded too, He does not have the broadness of mind like
true scholars. He does not appeal to Bangla speaking readers in india.
he is not well known outside Bangladeshi borders. Bangladeshi readers
do not serve as reliable criterion to measure greatness. And it is
laughable for Humayun Ahmed to criticize the language of Humayun Azad's
novel because he himself uses coarse language. for example just
consider this:
"Harami'r Bachcha Tor Maar'e Ami...," in his "famous" novel "Parapar."
He has studied in USA and exploited his degree from USA to further his
career in DU but he mocks anything US (in fact anything western).
Hypocrisy or what. He is good at taking cheapshots and stunts. he
invited street urchins for a lunch at Sheraton once. How much of his
profit from his book sales has he spent for social work/education? he
has spent it to build deluxe resort house in St. Martin Island. He
cannot pronounce Bangla correctly. It is no surprise that he will
condemn the anti-islamic writing of Humayun Azad. He is a closet
Islamist himself. There is nothing in his writing or saying that
reveals otherwise.
