Fellow human, please tell me that I am not the only one who is this influenced by a book, for I am scared that the society might question my sanity.

S.Hussain Zaidi, the author, is no stranger to the criminal world. He is a veteran of investigative crime and terrorism. He is perhaps the best crime reporter Mumbai has ever produced. I say best not because his first book ‘Black Friday’ went to become a bestseller of it’s time and then adapted into a movie of the same name or because he has been the chief crime reporter of Mumbai’s best newspapers.

Caveat: The review contains minor spoilers from the book, but mostly restricted to only the first fifteen or so pages and but there’s nothing here that would kill the book for you.

Why should you judge a book?
Like male and female, life and death, good and evil, and many other manifestations of Yin-Yang, books too can borrow the concept of natural duality, and thereby each book can be made to fall either under the category of ‘Good books’ or of ‘Bad books’.
In this blogspost shared by author Sonora Jha with IndiaBookStore, Sonora gives her readers a sneak-peak into want spurred her to write about the despair of Vidharbha and its suicides, and tell their story to the world in her much acclaimed debut novel, Foreign.
When I was in India to do the research on ‘Foreign’ in the villages of Yavatmal in Vidarbha, a few friends and relatives in the cities asked me why I was doing this. “Why are you writing this?”
