It was published as Chha Mana atha guntha in theiterary monthly Utkal Sahitya between 1897“99. Over a century after it was first published, this sombre tale continues to attract readers because of fakir Mohan senapati''s innovative technique, indelible characters, wit, imagination, and tremendous insights into the rural milieu.

Ramchandra mangaraj, a sly zamindar of the village of govindpur, is notorious for taking over theands of poor peasants and farmers. This time, his avaricious gaze falls on a small patch ofand”six and a third acres”belonging to a humble, god-fearing weaver couple.
