Fragments of Liberation War stories heard from Afsan Chowdhury

To understand the social realities of Bangladesh during and after the Liberation War, one must sit face-to-face with Afsan Chowdhury and listen to him. Though he has conducted research on the Liberation War, he has never looked at it through the lens of a state researcher. He has viewed it through the eyes of a social being. To him, the Liberation War is a people's war, where the fragmented stories of individuals reveal the wartime reality far more than the history documented through state mechanisms.
