Belinda | Anant Samant

अनंत सामंत यांच्या कथा आणि कादंबऱ्या त्यांच्या अतिशय वेगळ्या अशा दर्यावर्दी भवतालामुळे, त्यातील खलाशी आणि देशोदेशीच्या नानाविध लोकांच्या कहाण्या मांडण्यामुळे अतिशय प्रसिद्ध आहेत. त्यांच्या ह्या वेगळेपणामुळे त्यांचा असा खास वाचकवर्ग आहे. बेलिंदा ही शीर्षकथा आणि इतर लघुकथा असलेला हा कथासंग्रह देखील आपली निराशा करत नाही. ह्यामधील बेलिंदा आणि ती ही कथा हि समुद्राच्या, जहाजच्या प्रवासात […]

Prodigal Summer | Barbara Kingsolver

At the heart of this book is loneliness. And the book weaves it’s theme of primal instincts around this. The story revolves around Lena, Garnett and Deanna- these are our central characters having their own character graphs and stories happening around or about them. Each of one of them is lonely in their own way, […]

The Lethal White By Robert Galbraith

Ushering into 2020 with a strong urge to read more. Well, I won’t call it a New Year Resolution per se; as they are hard to keep. But, I will like to call it as a personal goal to have more times with the books beginning with this year. Well the first book to appear […]

My Sister The Serial Killer By Oyinkan Braithwaite

How do you define love? What makes a family? What breaks it? And more importantly what do you mean by loyalty? Is it defined by love, morales, faith or utter disbelief in any/ all of them?

The Great Alone | Kristin Hannah

Yes, it’s been a while since I wrote or read or listened to a good book. So, here I am now; with a book which talks much about one’s survival & will to live life fully rather than mere existence. This book by Kristin Hannah, which I heard in audiobook format was one such significant […]

A Gentleman In Moscow | Amor Towles

The storyline is quite simple and without much plot twists; but what makes it engrossing is how the story is told. On face of it, it seems like it’s confined within the four walls of the Hotel Metropol just like it’s leading man Alexander Ilyich Rostov. Oh, the charms of getting pleasantly surprised!!!

Three Books of Short Stories

Collection of short stories is actually one of my favourite forms of fiction; primary because in one book you get to read about more than one set of characters. The real power of these stories depends on how much punch they pack in span of few pages. So, with some expectations I’ve picked these three […]

दंशकाल |ह्र्षीकेश गुप्ते

पुस्तकाच्या पृष्ठभागावर दिसणारी विहीर हि फक्त ह्या घराचंच नाही त्या घरामध्ये राहण्याऱ्या माणसांचं देखील प्रतिक आहे. थांग न लागणारी विहीर आणि एकमेकांना धरून तगू पाहणारी माणसे खरंतर माणसाच्या अथांग मनोव्यापाराचं रूपक म्हणून सामोरी येतात.

ठकी आणि मर्यादित पुरुषोत्तम |कविता महाजन

ब्र आणि भिन्न ह्या अतिशय उत्तम आणि लोकप्रिय कादंबरी लिहिण्याऱ्या लेखिकेची अजून एक कादंबरी म्हणून मला ह्या पुस्तकाबद्दल खूप उत्सुकता होती. पण आश्चर्य म्हणजे मला ह्या पुस्तकाचा रिव्ह्यू कुठेही नजरेस पडला नाही, त्यामुळे कदाचित मी हे पुस्तक वाचताना माझ्या मनाची अपेक्षा पाटी अगदी कोरी होती. पुस्तकाचं कथासूत्र थोडक्यात सांगायचं तर ही कहाणी आहे पदमजा सप्रे […]
