What is The Home-coming (Chhuti) About?
The story called The Home-coming, which first came out in Bengali as Chhuti, meaning “The Holiday” or even “Leave,” is a really powerful and quite sad tragic story. It gets into the complicated thoughts of young people growing up, being away from home, and how much people really want to be loved.
The story is about Phatik Chakravarti, a boy of fourteen who is very wild and likes to cause trouble. He is the main person in charge of his friends in the village. This boy makes his mother, who is a widow, worry a lot because she just cannot manage him. So, when Phatik’s uncle, his mother’s brother Bishamber, comes to visit from the city, he offers to take the boy who is not behaving well back to Calcutta. The idea is to give him an education and help his sister out a bit. Phatik is really happy about going to the city and leaves his home in the countryside quite eagerly.
Life in Calcutta, however, quickly turns into a livi͏ng nightmare for the young boy. His aunt really resents him being there, seeing him as an uninvited problem and just an ugly, overgrown burden on their household. In the city, which is very crowded and suffocating, Phatik loses all his freedom from the village and becomes pa͏infully self-conscious, very awkward, and just desperately lonely. He struggles quite a bit at school, and his aunt routinely insults him. He aches for his mother’s unconditional love and also for the wide open fields of his village.
Dri͏ven by a lot of despair and a bad malarial fever, Phatik tries to run away from the situation. Only to be brought back by the police, he is in a critical state. In what is a very poignant conclusion, as the boy begins to slip away from this world, he says his final words deliriously: “Mother, the holidays have come.” For those who want to understand the historical context of the busy city that overwhelmed Phatik, you can find detailed information on Kolkata (Calcutta) on Britannica.
