 ===Love and marriage===
-Young Jibanananda fell in love with Shovona, daughter of his uncle [[Atulchandra Das]], who lived in the neighbourhood. He dedicated his first anthology of poems to Shovona without mentioning her name explicitly. He did not try to marry her since marriage between cousins was not socially acceptable.{{Citation needed|date=September 2016}} She has been referred to as Y in his literary notes. Soon after marrying [[Labanyaprabha Das]] (née Gupta) in 1930, a personality clash erupted and Jibanananda Das gave up the hope of a happy married life. The gap with his wife never narrowed. While Jibanananda was near death after a tram accident on 14 October 1954, Labanyaprabha did not visit her husband on his deathbed more than once. At that time she was busy in film-making in Tallyganj.{{Citation needed|date=September 2016}}
