Abstract :
The silence that attends Hyder's depiction of 1947 is also present in the writing in Bengal. It is surprising that such writers who witnessed violence chose not to talk about it. Representative Bengali writing does not deal with riots and murders. Instead, in both the Bengals, East and West, the fiction is concerned with displacement rather than with violence and death. Bengali writers ignored the riots to describe the attempt at building a new homeland, or on finding a new home , or on the continued struggle for a new order that independence had promised but not achieved.
