ARC REVIEWS:



The story touches you in every way, makes you smile at the author's

witty thoughts. Moves you, makes you cry. Leaves you with a question

if we really know what's right or wrong or it's just a moment which

might decide our future course of action. A wonderful read!

As the catastrophe unfolds through the lines, I feel my imagination is getting transported, almost naturally as if I am witnessing with my own eyes, the deaths; the gore and the whole narration of human suffering even as I am barely reading through the lines.Such is the vividness of your narration.

The outlines of personality and the inner traits of the characters are sketched most organically, and oneveryonen almost unwittingly relate to them, so much so as to swap positions.

Amid the horrors of a catastrophe, it’s great to observe people coming together, offering help, and fighting against all odds to afford themselves a chance to survive. The fear of death surely brings out the best in human beings, but it may also bring out the worst. People leaving behind their dead, people looking at ‘suffering’ others with indifference; when they might need the best of their help are a few examples.

This dichotomy of human thought and action, in such trying conditions is beautifully brought forth. From the uneven turf of a natural catastrophe, a life and death situation, how easily the focus of human mind may shift to things so full of life as memoirs and vivid experiences; the moment they find a trustworthy companion in whom they can confide their darkest secrets is almost incredibly amazing. Things they may otherwise not share with best of friends are given away with absolutely no qualms; we may never fully understand our instincts, much less prognosticate ever.
