Apu and his sister Durga try to make the most out of their poverty-stricken lives. Soon, when their father goes to the city for a job and their mother becomes increasingly bitter, things go downhill.
Disclaimer: The book 'Song of the Path' (পথের পাঁচালি) is a novel written by the famous Bengali writer Bibhutibhushan Bandyopadhyay (বিভূতিভূষণ বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায়). Pather Panchali won 11 international prizes, including the inaugural Best Human Document award at the 1956 Cannes Film Festival. I just translated it so that other readers from all over the world can enjoy this magnificent treasure of Bengali literature. Two of the translations are available from 1968 and 1976 but they are not public and cost an average of $20. This is one of my favourite books that I wanted to be read by everyone and I am trying my best.
Suitable for young readers. It contains cultural scenarios of the region. Word count [~1,00000]

Reading this version of the translated copy from any other online sight rather than Wattpad, you may be reading a tempared vertion of this book.

Only advice is to have patience as the translation is on going. Show your support by leaving a feedback. Please leave some encouraging comments for me to continue this tough job as the authentic book is not in recent Bangla writing style and vote if you like. Enjoy!
