For kilometers in every direction, there is not a hint of colour. Everything’s is gray-brown, soot-blackened and dust- blown. At Fatullah, on the banks of the Sitalakhya, the only signs of life are the workers of the 250 or so brick kilns on either side of the river. Everyday, work starts at six in the morning, carting head-loads of eight bricks from the furnace to the supply pile. Each trip back and forth is allotted a little over a minute. Any more, and the entire cycle will fall behind. For a twelve-hour workday, during which an average worker carries about five thousand bricks, he earns Tk. 80 after his expenses are paid. Seven days a week. No work? No pay.
I have seen your webpage ...so far as much I can absorb in one day....so much pain and so much beauty.
I'll visit it many times.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
