When readers connect with a novel's character that is an immense pleasure, feeling character's soul inside my heart is not a regular thing, you won't experience this often but when you feel it, you absorb every breath, you take care of your reading, you don't rush to the end, you enjoy the journey. This is one of those rare books, a pleasant surprise, a great writing. Richa Sharma's @richasharma_i writing is par excellence reminds me of Jhumpa Lahiri, such intensity, dignified intimacy she showed in her character is rare. Brilliantly portrayed each chapter explores human emotions in a significant poignant style. We all have a hidden side that always desired to be belonged to, author captured the essence masterfully and portrayed it with all her heart. With characters like Mridula, Maya and Kranti Richa created a poignant montage, an emotional documentation that touches the core and left marks for a long time. Don't miss this new brilliant author. Blurb: When a train derails in flood-ravaged Assam, it disrupts the lives of Mridula, Maya, and Kranti. Amid the search for their loved ones in the wreckage, repressed shadows come to the fore. Grey cityscapes blur into lush greens, and urban solitude turns into silent screams as their lives rotate between their physical homes and those of their dreams. Straining to break free from the burden of childhood and shifting homelands, can they withstand the awareness that change often brings? Or will they seek refuge in their old selves―Mridula, in accustomed abuse; Maya, in denial; Kranti, in Maya? Can the displaced find permanence in transiting homes?
