Book excerpt: This book aims to challenge the prevailing notion that gold represents prosperity and success by exploring its darker side. It begins with a family of weavers in ancient Eastern Bengal who, fleeing British oppression, settle in West Bengal near the Bhagirathi River. Their fortunes change when they rise from poverty to become a royal dynasty, thanks to a divine decree and the acquisition of a gold crown. However, the insatiable desire for the crown becomes their undoing, as it unleashes a series of devastating events that ultimately lead to their downfall. The author masterfully weaves together elements of the paranormal, toxic relationships, and unethical actions, all of which become magnetized by the power of gold. Throughout the narrative, the book also highlights the strength and resilience of feminine beings. It delves into the history of muslin, a fabric associated with femininity, to illustrate how women have used it as a symbol of protection and empowerment. By doing so, the book prompts readers to question the conventional perception of gold and its association with positive attributes. It invites us to explore a different perspective on the interplay between gold, power, and femininity. Through the mysteries and transformations embedded in the story, the author compels us to redefine our understanding of gold and its connection to feminine power.
