"Kolkata: There was no missing stall number 71 at the Little Magazine Fair, being held on the Rabindra Sadan premises. The Abamanab stall, put up by the transgender community to showcase their literary creativity, has seen a surge of new readers.
..
People of all ages gathered there to chat with those manning the stall and to buy present and past editions of 'Abamanab'. Edited by Manobi Bandopadhyay, the principal of Krishnagar College, the magazine that is gradually emerging as the voice of the third gender in the city, is clearly a hit."
