Student life in National University of Bangladesh especially, the students who has chosen English literature as their subject, is beset with various troubles. One of them is not getting studying resources easily available. In the beginning of new academic year, we all feel interested toward the new texts of new class. Unfortunately, it’s often takes some time to avail new books at hand. And the more the time prolongs, the more we lose our interest and passion for new text.
