This is the story about "Chiku's" best summer, how he and his best friends manage to enjoy their Summer Holidays with whatever little resources they have. It's about how he finds his true love and also depicts the struggle he faces to sustain it.

Banned when it was first published in the Bengali in 1967 on charges of obscenity, It Rained All Night went on to become a best-seller. Maloti, an attractive middle-class Bengali girl, marries the bookish college lecturer Nayonangshu only to find him insecure, sexually timid and unable to satisfy her.
