Nandik (নান্দিক)
Published by Nandik, Dhaka in 2025, নওয়াব ফয়জুন্নেসা (Nawab Faizunnesa) is a historical novel engaging with the life and intellectual legacy of Nawab Faizunnesa Choudhurani (1834–1903), the pioneering Bengali writer, author of Rupjalal (1876), philanthropist, and advocate for women's education in nineteenth-century Bengal.
Ahasan Imam’s published books reflect the dialogue between his fieldwork as a folklorist and his voice as a contemporary poet and lyricist. His poetry collections pair compressed, musical diction with psychological introspection, while his research monographs examine how oral traditions, mystic songs, and seasonal rituals sustain collective memory across Bengal.
In his 2025 novel নওয়াব ফয়জুন্নেসা (Nawab Faizunnesa), these literary and historical sensibilities converge in a portrait of Nawab Faizunnesa Chowdhurani (নওয়াব ফয়জুন্নেসা চৌধুরানী, 1834–1903), pioneer of women’s education and literature in colonial Bengal.
