They Go to sleep - By Saugata Chakraborty - Book Review

Cover is very enigmatic , catches readers interest in very first impression with dark half lit old narrow lanes of classic calcutta , seeping mystery with the unique title .

Pages - 102

Author - Saugata Chakraborty

Publisher - Notion press

Price - 179/-




There are 12 short stories , an anthology of tales that are based on mystery, suspense , crime thrillers and little horror .


Price I felt is very reasonable and you get to read diferrent works.

Quick read with good pace , no irrelevant conversations are things included , that helped an impatient reader like me keep interested . It proved to be a page turner .


I have still one two stories left but most stories are good.

The first one is based on the title itself with a crime thriller plot with backdrops of Goa and Calcutta dealing with drug dealing. The story with A watch and time was really interesting too.


Narration of author is quite good , he keeps the story unfold slowly . Simple language is used but has creativeness and he has played with the lines very well to bring depth to even simple situations.


After a long time read suspense , thriller based short story book and few scenes were based in kolkata so felt more connected . I felt this book deserves for me a rating of 4.2/5 .

Page quality is really good.

Font and all really comfortable and nice .

These things are also very important for me so i always mention these too.
