Bayard  From Bengal

Bayard from Bengal

by F. Anstey

The story follows the adventures of Chunder Bindabun Bhosh, a well-meaning but often hilariously misguided gentleman from Bengal who travels to England. His impeccable English and manners, though intended to be charming, often lead to amusing misunderstandings and embarrassing situations. 'Bayard from Bengal' is a witty and insightful exploration of cross-cultural interactions, highlighting the differences and humorous friction that can arise when individuals from vastly different backgrounds encounter each other.
