The Hungryalists introduced anarchy in Bengali texts, both in prose and poetry. Prior to them Anarchy in texts was considered a crime as per Bengali literary canon. For example Subimal Basak's "CHHATAMATHA" includes a frame of level jumping of time and space. He interjects spoken lingo of Dhaka's horse-cart drivers into Calcutta's urbane language and the mixture creates a delightful anarchy.
Malay Roychoudhury's single sentence novel creates a running anarchy of events borrowed from the 18th Century British period of Bengal and creates a mixture of time. He also introduces speaking cats who work as spies for the brothel where several ladies ply their business against. The customers have to insert their payment into the are or vagina of the specific girls. These crevices are called "Swiss Banks".
