Rahman Shelley is a very popular and sophisticated name in our time as well in the contemporary Bengali literature. He moved freely in all branches of literature. Among all his works so far, in my opinion Ma Novel is very rich and famous. At the very beginning of the novel, Rahman has given a great poetic simile by describing the value of mother.
Day is dark without sunlight, night is dark without moon, just as day and night of humans are darkened without mother. Zerina Zaman is thinking in this moments that life is dark without mother. It’s as the sun spreads light all over the world and makes the day beautiful, similarly the moon removes the darkness to make the night beautiful when it is awake, mother is like the sun and the moon that keeps her child in her arms for all the times and goes ahead with bright light. Rahman Shelley started writing his novel with the mentioned lines. His presentation style is very poetic. Just as night and day are dark without the moon and the sun, the whole human life is immobile without the mother. As we know in this small word 'Mother' is hidden an infinite and amazing power of merciless and selfless love. Who does not know about the mother's sacrifice for the child? A mother is the only one in this world who can risk her life for her child. But growing up many times we forget the selfless sacrifice of mother.
There is a Chinese myth. The story is like 'a lover said to test her boyfriend, I want to test your love! The boyfriend said, what test will be taken? I am ready for all exams. The lover said, bring your mother's heart...! The boy blind in love ran to his mother! Killed the mother and ran with her heart to the lover, to pass the test of love...! The boy suddenly fell on the way. Mother's fresh heart fell out of her hand! The boy found and took his mother's heart. Mother's heart is still pounding. As soon as he took it in his hand. At that time mother asked her child, "Are you in pain, baby?" This is called mother and this is just a story. But in real life we also see signs of mother's intense love for her child. The incident took place in January 2016 in Philadelphia, USA. Rescue workers rescued the mother after the house caught fire. But the little boy was still inside the house. A mother jumped into the fire to save her son after avoiding the security personnel and fire service. They couldn't get out because of flames and smoke. The mother died in the fire along with her son.
The symbol of mother's love applies not only to humans but to the entire animal world. Animals like humans also have surprising motherhood. Animals also consider mother's lap as the safest shelter. A wonderful example of saving one's own child by giving one's own life can be seen in some other animals besides humans. Spiders of the genus Aconophilia live mainly in Australia. The mother spider of this tribe lays about 40 eggs together in a house of ucalyptus leaves. Eggs hatch in mid- spring or early summer. During the summer, the mother spider can grow up to 10 times its adult size. At this time, the baby spider can eat its fill. Winter returns to the seasonal cycle. The time comes for the mother spider to lay eggs again. Meanwhile, the babies born earlier face food shortages. The number of insects already decreases in winter. Meanwhile, as the mother spider's egg-laying time approaches, she can't feed the babies as much insects as before. The mother spider becomes pregnant with his blood Nutrients increase. At this time, hungry baby spiders begin to suck nutritious blood from the junction of the legs of mother spider.
Gradually the mother spider's body begins to dry. After a few weeks the mother spider is so weak that she can no longer move. At this time, the baby spiders attack the mother, kill her with poison, and use her digestive system to eat her. During this time, spiders are the only source of food for the children. If this food runs out before the end of winter, the baby spiders start eating each other. So a mother spider tries her best to keep her offspring alive. For this reason, she stores food in her body since summer. Thus the death of the mother keeps the children alive. She can no longer move.
It is because we forget about the sacrifices of the mother that the news comes out, the mother is killed by the child or the child runs away leaving the old mother on the street. Those who are a little better off leave their mother in the old age home. Due to the loosening of family ties, the value of old age homes is also increasing in our country. And the government had to make a law to force the child to support the parents.
I believe and in my consideration, this novel named "Mother " will be gone beyond the map of our own territory and respond to the whole world through Amazon.
