Book Review: The Camphor of Night by Samir Satam

By
This  book  is like a warm coffee that soothes and rejuvenates you from inside out.     Kindle  |  Paperback   The Blurb: This day, Today, when looked at from the window of Future; Wouldn't it seem golden? But today it feels like just another day. Why does all this preciousness have to pass to be seen? Why can't it get its due while it lives? Unfortunately, that's the way it has always been. The Future seems to hold a certain value for The Past. But the present seems to be like an unfinished coin. It's still incomplete to derive any worth. The poems in this collection 'The Camphor Of Night' are little things stolen from life which found their way to a treasury box in which they lay locked for years until these little things developed a life of their own and hence they need to be set free, because now is their time to breathe. Excerpt: Titled: Shivers In those moments, When I think, Of his lips on yours... His skin against

Book Review: Sondai- The Dowager Bride by Payal Kumar

By
This  book  is a journey of Sondai towards self-discovery by beating the societal stigma. Amazon   The Blurb: Sondai, who is about to die, reminiscences her entire life of transformation. She is a widow, which is a taboo in our society till date, particularly in the villages of our country and in the state Bihar. The story revolves around the indomitable beliefs of Sondai, the main character, and how this ultimately brings a progression in the fate of her family as well. Excerpt: Life had trained her with experiences. A childhood spent in fairy tales of her beauty myths to stepping into a life that's all white and blank, the transformation of her audacious persona was not at all a tranquil journey- it had been a rough and rocky conduit all the way. *** The strong gingery aroma of the boiling tea and the splashing sound of kachadis in the pan could not stop Sondai's baffling emotions from thinking about Manoj. He still had the boyish charm, irrespective

Book Review: Ink of Pain by Fiona Kaur

By
This book gently caresses the stronger you.  Amazon Paperback The Blurb: It's a saga of pain where my heart aches and my ink bleeds every unvoiced emotion of life. So much I kept unsaid yet revealed my heart in words. It's been after years of cocooning till I gathered the courage to ink every pain I felt as a girl, lady, a mother. At last as a woman... About the Author: Karandeep Kaur- writing under pen name 'Fiona Kaur', born and brought up in the city of Taj (Agra) in a middle class family. Studies as usual were burden to her, till she got introduced to Shakespeare in Grade 9. It was a twister for her- the creativity, the display of emotions, as if it was happening right around her- it was fascinating. In grade 11, the Great Expectations happened and she was in complete awe of Charles Dickens. These were two major turning points in her life, which made a book phobic student, a craver for words.  She traveled to many places like UK, Europe, D
