La Nuit Bengali (Bengal Nights) by Mircea Eliade and Na Hanyate (It Does Not Die) by Maitreyi Devi are expressions of the two different people of a same emotion. These two novels, the first published in 1933 and the other more than forty years later in 1973, in response to the first by two distinguished literati retell the tales of their love affair from two broadly conflicting viewpoints. The two novels as a remarkably poignant story of young love incapable to succeed against an adversary whose strength was disastrously reinforced by the uncertainties of a cultural rift. They are moved in a different way; one being written as a captivating and unusual love-story by a young European explorer. The other is the expression of a strong Indian woman recalling and discovering her own past in response to the ardent tale. Both novels attempt to narrate the identical history of a romance set in the colonial past of India. This paper traces the confrontation of east and west, its consequences and impact on an actual, cross-cultural romance that unfolds in the pre-independent period of India.
