At times, you do come across stories that might demand your attention to a great extent. However, the reward is a fitting culmination of the entire reading ritual… one such tale is a recently published novel by Kolhapur Ramamurthy, Kapardi. This is a detailed review of the same. I hope you enjoy the review and the book, eventually! All the best!

Kolhapur Ramamurthy’s Kapardi emerges as a refreshing addition to contemporary Indian fiction, combining the allure of a

Dr. Ajaya Kashyap’s The Quest of Sushruta is a rare gem in the landscape of contemporary Indian fiction, offering a profound exploration of the life and legacy of Sushruta, the father of surgery. The novel transcends the boundaries of historical retelling, delving into human existence’s emotional, philosophical, and ethical dimensions. With a narrative rooted in ancient India’s cultural and intellectual vibrancy, Kashyap pays tribute to a pioneering figure and propels readers to ponder the timeless relevance of

Romance doesn’t scare me unless it becomes a voluminous and tedious task to get across. Yulin Kuang’s novel, surprisingly titled How to End a Love Story, feels nudging and agile until the pace of the story takes over your excitement, and you feel overburdened by the usual drab romantic fiction brought to the table! Isn’t it? Let’s discuss these details in this book review.

Yulin Kuang’s How to End a Love Story offers readers a deeply emotional journey through grief,

In this book review article, I will

Aurijit Ganguli is not an entirely new novelist for the readers of the day. His first novel, The Shambala Sutras, came out in 2020. Readers and book critics received it well.

Rare are the books that document genuine cases of crimes against women. Government documents and yearly reports by independent NGOs, at times, lack the refinement. However, a recent publication by one of the leading activists, counsellors and teachers for many years – Dr Jonaki Mukherjee – has set the ball rolling yet again. Unvanquished: The Fight Beyond Justice, a March 2022 book, delivers ten stunning, numbing, and horrendous stories of atrocities against women in different forms. Nevertheless, at the

Insignificant Me by Dr. Prathima is a collection of short stories. I have just finished reading it. The joy of completing a book is incomparable. Only a reader can understand it. It gives a sense of achievement. More than that, it leads to inner peace. I am an avid reader and used to read novels a lot. But lately, I have shifted my focus to short stories. It is mainly due to the tight schedule I live on. It doesn’t

Many young authors have written many novels. Adults have written many novels for young authors. However, there are rare occasions when young authors write impactful novels for young adults. The Moon Wolf by Sanjana Kanamarlapudi is one of those rare novels that make a wider impact upon the audience, beyond the intended ones… this novel is the latest novel by 7-book author Sanjana who is just 13 by the way, as in 2022. Isn’t that surprising enough?

The Moon Wolf,

However, it used to sound funny to me at that time and I did never care to think otherwise. Children are like that only! And I am sure, like me, it was the funniest phrase for you too then. Could anyone remain quiet? I used to think and laugh.
