Zunayed Evan's novel tops pre-order list

Zunayed Evan’s debut novel, Shesh, broke all previous pre-ordering records on Rokmari, the country's largest online book store, says a press release. 

After its much-anticipated release during the Amar Ekushey Book Fair 2021, Shesh is now one of Rokomari's best-selling novels. The online book selling shop shared this piece of information in a recent post on social media. 

The novel is published by Kingbodonti Publications. 

The book's third edition has been released in response to high demand from readers. Speaking about the book, Kingbodonti proprietor Anjan Hasan Paban said, “Readers are collecting the book with great enthusiasm. The book has topped the bestselling list in the novel category ever since its release.”

The book’s author Zunayed, who’s also the vocalist of rock band Ashes, says, "Writing has been a habit since childhood. The sound that makes my ears deaf, I wanted to give a melody to that sound. I leave it to the readers whether I have successfully done it or not "

The story is about a writer named Shihab, whose writing is about converting illusion, delusion and hallucination into fiction. One day he tells his roommate Hasan to commit suicide. At one stage, a kind of agreement takes place between them. As a result, Hasan goes out of the house to buy ropes to commit suicide, but he comes back with an aquarium.
