Book Review: Dusra Janam

| @indiablooms | Dec 20, 2017, at 06:22 pm

Kunwar Vivek Chauhan's debut novel Dusra Janam, from Power Publishers, is an interesting story revolving around the theme of rebirth and resurrection.

Written in Hindi, the novel is profoundly intimate in style.  This deeply compassionate novel depicts the life of two lovers whose romance is bludgeoned by a tragedy; but eventually fate has other plans for them.

This is not a novel which haunts us and questions us about the unfinished answers, uncertain futures and gives us unsatisfactory explanations; instead, one is content to leave them where they leave us, carrying forward a brief time we have spent with them. 

Grab this book at Rs 199, now available at power-publishers.com. ​
