Publisher - Notion Press

A title like this would certainly grab the attention of the readers. I was no exception. I got intrigued by it and picked up a copy for myself. What is this book all about?

This is a fictional story with the mix of legends and myths that would make you retrospect about your understanding about Life and most importantly, the Death. The cover page was really apt for the title. I have read some of the previous works of the author and was sure that even this book would be completely different just like his previous ones. I was correct.

Initially, I thought it would be a suspense/crime thriller. I was proved wrong. The flow of the write up was done in such a way that you would not feel the boredom and you would finish it in one go.

There are three protagonists in this book namely:

Amrit

Surya and

Rajat

Each had their own problems in their life. This varied from death of a close relative, miscarriage of a child, illness. Though they were successful otherwise, these events continued to haunt them that they decided to take a trip to Varanasi.

Why Varanasi?

They also get to meet each other over there and the story continues.

Did they get to learn or got to know the answers for their questions in Varanasi?

There are few things which makes this novel stand out. What are those?

On the first half, it talks about various events that makes our life which includes marital relationship, love, misunderstandings, struggles etc, These were captured in great detail which would make you feel as if you are watching it in real. On the second half, I felt, it is about "Self-Realisation" wherein each and every protagonist who had varied assumptions about the place they visit comes across few events which make them realize the truth behind certain notions which is not only logical but also retrospective.

Read this unputdownable novel to find out more. This story has lot of takeaways and I am sure, you would appreciate the message which author had tried to put across...

This book is available on Amazon

Is studying abroad a boon or a bane?

We have always had a debate when it comes to the topic - "Is studying abroad a boon or a bane?" The ideas differ from person to person. If you ask me, I would surely say that Studying Abroad is certainly a boon. Why is that? India is home to many universities which are known worldwide. Having said that, we must also accept the fact that none of them are in Top 20 at least. While there are many factors that attributes to this, when a person has the means to afford it combined with interest and talent, I do not see the reason as to why one shouldn't be educated abroad? While few study for their status symbol, majority of them predominantly study abroad to enhance their career. There is no doubt in it.

The major hindrance for us is clearing the English tests which were being conducted across the glob...
