Bidesha O Anyanya Galpa is a collection of twenty-five short-stories. Evocatively narrated, they sparkle with compassion and humanity. Set in the largely unexplored terrain of rural Odisha this collection seeks to unlock the mysteries of human nature. Each story in this collection has a distinct and unique flavour. The broad vision of the writer, which blends tradition with modernity, enables him to explore the conflicts and complexities of a society undergoing rapid transformation. Poignantly rendered events and the emotions they arouse in the reader illuminate the essential connectedness underlying our lived reality. Almost all the protagonists of these stories, men and women, seem intimately familiar. Most of the situations and backdrops against which the stories unfold are contemporary. Close observation of characters and their interrelationships provide insights into their motives and often makes thereafter deeply nostalgic about the lost world of childhood. Despite the author's insistence that the stories are works of fiction, the vividness with which the characters and incidents are rendered makes one feel as if he has stepped into a vibrantly real world. In this collection, the readers hear the voice of a major Indian writer of short fiction.

Mayagherare Kalidas (Kalidas in the Encircling Net of Maya), first published in 2002, happens to be the fourth anthology of Odia poems by Bhagaban Jayasingh, one of the most outstanding poets of our time now. This long poem, rather a sequence of 33 poems, has been built upon the fundamental Hindu concept of 'maya' (Sanskrit: illusion), and our attachment to the things which are illusory in nature. Kalidas, the persona is that of a fallible 'everyman' who has a subjective misperception of the world as ultimately real. These poems have depicted Kalidas's experience of unreality through his attachment to life, love, pleasure and sex notwithstanding his response to human suffering, despair and death which he thinks are real. Jayasingh happens to be the first Odia and Indian poet to dwell upon maya as the persistent and dominant theme of poetry.
