Set during the stormy month of Joisto, the story follows Nagendra Natha Datta, a wealthy zemindar from Haripur, as he embarks on a boat journey to Calcutta, crucial for his court cases. Despite his wife's warnings to secure the boat during storms, he initially enjoys smooth sailing, observing the lively activities along the riverbank. The narrative captures the vibrant rural life and the contrast between Nagendra's privileged status and the struggles of the local villagers, setting the stage for potential conflict as nature looms unpredictably.
